Sun is neutral
Moon can be male or female depending on if you say mesec(m) or luna(f)

Daily reminder that thinking like this is textbook schizophrenic.

It's the other way around.

It's completely pointless and I say this as someone who learned multiple languages with them rather than just growing up with it and not knowing any better

anyone defending arbitrarily assigning genders to nouns is a fucking idiot who's doubling down on his wasted efforts.

"no"

it's good for shibbolething Ausländer

>anything that's like a stick is basically male
>anything with a hole is basically female
It's like Europeans are trying to fuck everything

Other languages:
>crazy retarded rollercoaster where nouns are masculine or feminine (or more) based on completely arbitrary criteria, the vast majority of these nouns have no genitalia
English:
>logical smooth sailing, only people (and sometimes animals) are gendered, otherwise everything is an inanimate "it"

Someone explain the use of gendered nouns to me please.

>inb4 some sperg starts ranting about the poetic use of she for ships

>not calling your car "she"
Typical nigger

The use as in, the mechanism, or the purpose?
Because the latter has no answer, the former is basically if you split the word 'the' into 'the' (male) and 'tha' female, then randomly assigned (yes, randomly, because it's fucking random for 95% of nouns) 'the' or 'tha' to nouns.

'The chair' but 'tha table'. Why? Cause fuck you that's why. Now go and learn which of these is the correct one for every noun. Extra points for German where you need to learn 'the', 'tha' and 'thy'.

I can't understand how the language can have no gender.

It's just natural that nouns that end with "a" feel feminine and nouns that end with "o" feel neuter.

I dont think Lithuanian has a neuter pronoun

backward, homophobic language

Depending on the gender, you conjugate verbs differently, the suffixes for adjectives are different etc. It also ties in with numbers (singular, plural, dual for a few languages) that modify that even further

>randomly assigned
It all makes sense in Slavic languages

"Ooh Le Le"

"NON"

"C'est n'est pas "Ooh Le Le?"

"NON, C'EST OOH LA LA. LA LA, TU COMPRENDS?"

"Oui, c'est 'le la' pour un femme et un homme?"

"QU'EST CE QUE LE LA? JE NE SAIS 'LE LA' C'EST OOH LA LA!"

"Ooh Le La Monsieur! C'est Bien Connu"

>Someone explain the use of gendered nouns to me please.

This is still less retarded than articles.

Seriously, why do I need to specify whether I mean "some" thing or THE thing every time I'm talking about "thing". In most of cases it doesn't matter, I could just say "I saw girl" and only if it really matters I could be more precise and add "a" or "the".

Actually, there are a lot of English phrases without any article like "I'm going to school". You don't need to say "a school" or "the school" because it's not really important. So why would you use these articles in other cases when it's not that important either?

>It all makes sense in Slavic languages

I don't claim to speak any so I can't comment intelligently, but I would sure love to know how it makes sense to assign a gender to things like a chair, a brick, a lamppost, a road, etc.

>It all makes sense in Slavic languages

Yeah but this "sense" is mostly conventional.

Like nouns that end with "a" tend to be feminine, but this is only because we're used to it. Just like words with soft "r" at the end are also often feminine (stvar, zver) in Slavic languages - why? No one knows, just because someone made them like that.

You don't assign anything, depending on the suffix, the different the gender and the different the declensions

You can't take a male noun and use a female declension for it

Blame the Danes. Also,
>His "language" has genders for inanimate objects.

>how it makes sense to assign a gender to things like a chair, a brick, a lamppost, a road, etc.

It's very important in poetry, it also affects your mind and how you perceive the world (things with feminine names are considered "softer", more delicate). But I do agree - it doesn't make any "sense" from the logical point of view.

>You can't take a male noun and use a female declension for it

We don't ask about cohesion in grammar, we ask about the general sense. WHY nouns have genders and WHY certain nouns have these genders not others. WHY words that end with "a" or soft "r" are usually feminine, not the words that end with "g", for instance.

It just sounds right. That's how languages developed and it's how it is

>his language has genders

>It just sounds right. That's how languages developed and it's how it is

That's why the Jew was right when he said that we "assign" gender. Or more like - the people who invented and developed the language did. At some point they just decided "this word will be feminine" and it was classified as feminine so feminine declension was used to it.

But since it's conventional, it's changed over time. Like this "zver" - in Serbian and Russian this word is feminine, but in Polish - masculine. Just because Poles changed its classification. Why? Who knows? Maybe along with the shift in meaning - in Polish "zwierz" means just "animal" while in Serbian and Russian it means "beast". In Polish "beast" is "bestia" (feminine) or "potwór" (masculine). Does it make sense? Maybe. Or maybe not. That's just how it is.
