Hi [https://polyglotclub.com/language/georgian Georgian] learners! 😊<br>In this lesson, we will learn about the gender rules in Georgian. We will look at the different genders and how to identify them. We will also look at some examples and practice using the gender rules. Finally, we will have a quiz to test your understanding. __TOC__

==Rules==
In Georgian, there are three genders: masculine, feminine, and neuter. The gender of a noun is usually determined by its ending.

Masculine nouns usually end in -ი or -ა. For example, მამა (mama) is masculine, დედა (dada) is masculine, and სახლი (sakhli) is masculine.

Feminine nouns usually end in -ე or -ა. For example, მამა (mama) is feminine, დედა (dada) is feminine, and სახლი (sakhli) is feminine.

Neuter nouns usually end in -ო or -ა. For example, მამა (mama) is neuter, დედა (dada) is neuter, and სახლი (sakhli) is neuter.

There are some exceptions to these rules. For example, some nouns that end in -ი can be either masculine or feminine.

==Examples==
Here are some examples of nouns with their genders:
