I made a short lesson about the Gender of Nouns with some exercices at the end, really easy to undestand (i hope), feel free to ask any questions here

Gender of Nouns I

A noun is a word used to refer to a person, place, thing, or idea: (Everybody knows this but just in case –anml)

Person: Alex, boy, woman
Place: School, garden, garage
Thing: Ball, book
Idea: liberty, despair, intelligence


In Spanish, all nouns are either masculine or feminine:

Masculine Feminine
Chico------------Chica
Boy--------------Girl

Libro-------------Escuela
Book-------------School


"El" (masculine) and "la" (feminine) mean "the."

Masculine Feminine
El chico--------La chica
The boy------The girl

El libro----------La escuela
The book------The School


Nouns that end in -o are usually masculine.
Nouns that end in -a are usually feminine.



Gender of Nouns II

Masculine nouns that end in a consonant often have a corresponding feminine form that ends in -a.

Teacher

la profesora

Doctor
el doctor
la doctora


Nouns that end in -sión, -ción, -dad, -tad, -tud, -umbre are feminine.

la televisión – tv

Some nouns that end in -a are masculine.

Many nouns that end in -ma are masculine.

Four of the nouns that end in -a are masculine.
