Three Noun Genders

Level 1

Greek nouns belong to masculine, feminine or neuter gender.

How It Works

Greek nouns belong to masculine, feminine or neuter gender.

Learn a noun with its article: ο, η or το. Gender controls articles and adjectives; a noun's meaning or last letter alone does not reliably determine it.
