Gender in Danish and Swedish : ウィキペディア英語版 | Gender in Danish and Swedish
In Danish and Swedish, nouns have two grammatical genders, and additionally people have two natural genders similar to English. ==Overview==
Historically, nouns in Danish and Swedish, like other Germanic languages, had one of three grammatical genders: masculine, feminine, or neuter. Over time the feminine and masculine genders merged into a ''common gender''. A common gender is also partly used in some variants of Dutch, but in Dutch the merging is not complete, with some vestiges in pronouns. Danish and Swedish have no such vestiges, since they unlike Dutch and German do not use the same pronouns for objects and people, but like English have ''natural gender'' personal pronouns for people, and separate ''grammatical gender'' pronouns for objects and animals. Whereas standard Danish and Swedish are very similar in regard to noun genders, many dialects of Danish and Swedish have separate numbers of grammatical genders, from only one, and up to three. Norwegian while similar to Danish and Swedish, uses three genders in its two standard versions, but some dialects, like that of Bergen, and the ''Riksmål'' dialect of ''Bokmål'' uses two.
