User:Morgengave/Animals in Dutch

This page helps to make sure all entries are made.

Some notes:

• if the grammatical gender of the general word for the animal is feminine, the word is also used for the female animal. Examples: kat, gans, eend, koe. Alternatively, the the general word is masculine, the word is also used for the masculine animal. Examples: leeuw, hond, olifant.
• for many animals compound words starting with vrouwtjes- or wijfjes- can be used to refer to the female animal, or mannetjes- to refer to the male animal.
