Noun gender in Russian.
Russian nouns have three grammatical genders: masculine, feminine, and neuter. Each gender has its own set of inflectional endings that are used to indicate case and number.
Masculine nouns typically refer to male persons, animals, or objects, and they end in consonants (except for мягкий знак "ь") or -й.
Feminine nouns typically refer to female persons, animals, or objects, and they end in -а, -я, -ица, or -ь.
Neuter nouns typically refer to objects or concepts that are not inherently masculine or feminine, and they end in -о, -е, or -мя.
Examples 🤍:
--- Feminine - Женский род (zhénskiy rod):

Urgent‼️
For those who didn't know: In early April, we started
our own online Russian language course - from scratch to conversational. The first month of learning has ended and our students really enjoyed it
We had to refuse many people from learning because there were no suitable groups. Now there are groups for all levels
So we decided to take on 4 more students for training, because we don't know when the next intake will be, we haven't planned dates yet. Don't miss the opportunity, because with us you get:
✅Two grammar classes per week (on Mondays and Wednesdays). And one conversational class on Saturdays⏰
✅Checked homework assignments and feedback to track your progress
✅Duration of 2.5 - 3 months regardless of the group level. Each of you will have a great opportunity to grow significantly and immerse yourself in the language
✅Chat with instant feedback, support, and like-minded individuals
✅Different learning formats to make the process enjoyable for you. Through cartoons, music, games
Bonus💥 - Among those 4 who buy the course, we will raffle off a month of free training. A very big chance to win!
