To add to my previous remarks about masculine and feminine, there are some words that refer to the same thing, and they have different gender, e.g. there are two words for window in Arabic: (\u0646\u0627\u0641\u0630\u0629) which is feminine and (\u0634\u0628\u0627\u0643) which is masculine, likewise there are two words for life\/living (\u062d\u064a\u0627\u0629) which is feminine and (\u0639\u064a\u0634) which is masculine, and there are two words for death (\u0648\u0641\u0627\u0629) which is feminine and (\u0645\u0648\u062a) which is masculine, and so on.<\/p>\n
Do you know that there are some words in Arabic that can be used as either masculine or feminine?<\/p>\n
\u062f\u0644\u0648 \u00a0= bucket<\/p>\n
\u0633\u0643\u064a\u0646 \u00a0= knife<\/p>\n
\u0637\u0631\u064a\u0642 \u00a0= way<\/p>\n
\u0633\u0648\u0642 \u00a0= market<\/p>\n
\u0630\u0631\u0627\u0639 \u00a0= arm<\/p>\n
\u0639\u0646\u0642 \u00a0= neck<\/p>\n
\u062e\u0645\u0631 = wine<\/p>\n
So, we can say both \u0630\u0631\u0627\u0639 \u0637\u0648\u064a\u0644 and \u0630\u0631\u0627\u0639 \u0637\u0648\u064a\u0644\u0629, and we can say both \u0633\u0648\u0642 \u0639\u0627\u0645\u0631 and \u0633\u0648\u0642 \u0639\u0627\u0645\u0631\u0629.<\/p>\n
