Abstract:

This paper provides a thorough comparison of the grammatical gender systems in the Russian and Arabic languages. Grammatical gender is a linguistic phenomenon that classifies nouns based on inherent or arbitrary characteristics. Russian and Arabic have distinct gender systems, and this study seeks to reveal the similarities and differences between them. This study emphasis on the structural and functional aspects of gender in these languages by examining linguistic aspects such as noun inflections, agreement patterns, and semantic associations. The findings help us understand cross-linguistic variation in gender systems and focus mainly on the broader linguistic and cognitive implications of gender categorization.
