SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES OF GENDER OF NOUN IN ENGLISH AND RUSSIAN LANGUAGES

Аннотация

Annotation: This thesis looks at how words are grouped by gender in English and Russian, and how this affects the way we use language. In English, gender is usually pretty straightforward, like when we say "he" for boys and "she" for girls. But in Russian, it's more complex, with words having different genders like masculine, feminine, or neuter. We'll explore how this affects how sentences are put together and how it can make translating between the two languages tricky. This article aims to explore the perspectives of both English and Russian scholars on this linguistic phenomenon. By delving into relevant theories and drawing upon examples from English and Russian literature, we endeavor to compare and contrast the terminologies and approaches employed in each language.
