Nouns can be one of three genders; Masculine, Feminine or Neuter. It's important to know which gender each word is. But if you get it wrong, don't worry you'll still be understood.


It's very easy to determine the gender of nouns; my personal trick is called Hiya Owen!

  • Feminine nouns usually end in -а or -я
  • Neuter nouns usually end in -о or -е
  • Masculine nouns end in a consonant, example: н


All together; it sounds like: Ah-ya-oh-e-n Which sounds like Hiya Owen
