-Most Black Speech [[black_speech_dialects|dialects]] copy English grammar in gender: nouns do not have this category but 3rd person singular pronouns split in three genders: masculine, feminine and neutral. Anyway gender has no special impact on inflection. Shadowlandian dialect differentiates nouns basing on relation to persons (names of races, professions, titles) which has no plural form, but other animated (e.g. animals) and all unanimated nouns have it.
