- Good evening-
- Are you sure cailín is masculine ? --ArséniureDeGallium (talk) 21:31, 12 March 2017 (UTC)
- Yes! Similarly to Mädchen, the gender of the word for "girl" is determined by its suffix (in this case, {{m|ga|-ín}}), not by its meaning. Nevertheless, pronouns referring back to {{m|ga|cailín}} are feminine. —Aɴɢʀ (talk) 21:36, 12 March 2017 (UTC)
- Other cases where grammatical gender doesn't match natural gender in Irish are {{m|ga|gasóg|g=f|t=boy scout}} and {{m|ga|stail|g=f|t=stallion}}. —Aɴɢʀ (talk) 21:40, 12 March 2017 (UTC)
