THE GENDERS

The genders are three in the Greek language. The ending, and not necessarily the meaning of the word, determines the gender.

GENDER	ENDINGS	EXAMPLE
Αρσενικό (masculine)	-ος, -ας, -ης	αδελφός (brother) μήνας (month) μαθητής (pupil/student)
Θηλυκό (feminine)	-α, -η	μητέρα (mother) αδελφή (sister)
Ουδέτερο (neuter)	-ι, -ο, -μα	αγόρι (boy) μήλο (apple) μάθημα (lesson)
