Gender

@CodeCat Is it a convention to use the "common gender" for nouns, which can be both masculine and feminine? --Anatoli T. ^{(обсудить}/^вклад) 08:09, 17 May 2015 (UTC)

No, it means that it's not known whether it's masculine or feminine. —CodeCat 12:16, 17 May 2015 (UTC)

I see, thanks. Genders seem a bit complicated in Dutch. --Anatoli T. ^{(обсудить}/^вклад) 12:37, 17 May 2015 (UTC)

Yes, they are. They even have their own Wikipedia article: w:Gender in Dutch grammar. There's also some explanation at WT:ANL. —CodeCat 12:53, 17 May 2015 (UTC)
