Nouns

Every noun has a grammatical gender, which is determined by the first letter of the noun’s lemma. For example, fh is a feminine letter, so all nouns beginning with fh are feminine. M is a masculine letter, so all nouns beginning with a m are masculine.
Grammatical gender is not influenced by the gender or biological sex of what the noun relates to.

Plural nouns are formed by taking into account whether the lemma form of the noun is masculine or feminine, and whether the last letter of the singular noun is a consonant or vowel, and then applying a suffix: Short Words(bénagál) Tall Words(sàshgál) Masculine + dô + én Feminine + té + ós
