What are the gender endings in Latin?
Nominative and accusative cases of neuter nouns are always the same. The plural always ends in '-a'. Accusative singular for masculine and feminine nouns always ends in '-m'; accusative plural for masculine and feminine nouns always ends in '-s'. Genitive plural of all declensions ends in '-um'.
What is the gender in Latin?
There are three genders in Latin: masculine (masculinum), feminine (femininum) and neuter (neutrum). The gender of the nouns is natural, i.e. in accordance with their sex (especially if they are living creatures), or grammatical, i.e. in accordance with their terminations.
What gender is 3rd declension Latin?
The third declension has nouns of all genders, including the neuter. Unlike the regular masculine/feminine declension, neuter nouns must follow our rules of neuter, which makes their declension slightly different.
What is a 1 declension noun in Latin?
Nouns are divided into groups called declensions. Nouns that end in '-a' belong to the first declension. They are mostly feminine. In Latin, there are no words for 'a' or 'the'.
