How do the rules work
in the book?
Rules can relate to four things:
- The ending of a word: For example, nouns ending in ‘-or’ have a 93% chance of being masculine, or 85% of nouns ending in ‘-e’ are feminine.
- The beginning of the word: For example, 61% of nouns starting with Ge- are neuter.
- Group of words: Think of metals or colours; they are all neuter, like Switzerland in world affairs.
- Short & Ugly: This is a special rule, which means that monosyllabic nouns that start and end with a consonant, such as der Frosch, are mostly masculine. They are the tough guys of the German language.
