English is genuinely the best language. It's easy to learn and being both Germanic and Latin in origin makes it extremely flexible.

It's not the object that has a gender, it's the word describing the object.

>word describing the object
I'm tired of these ESL games

Inanimate objects do not have genders.

>>216514098
we latins and shiet

>>216514163
Can you please clarify whether you meant the male inanimate or the female inanimate.

You're welcome for the world we built you.

there's no male table though.
but there indeed are some pair of words with different meaning and genders that ended up being written and pronounced the same, like "mousse". it also happened in English without the gender, like "light", "sow" or "die". in fact it's even more common in English.

the slang word for dick is feminine in most latin languages.

it's something you pick up naturally when using the language, don't think about it too hard
