Cultural Insight: Gender Agreement

In Arabic, adjectives describing body parts must agree in gender with the body part they are referring to. For example, if you want to say “big eyes”, the word for “big” (كبير kabir) must match the gender of “eyes” (عيون ‘ayun). So, you would say “عيون كبيرة ‘ayun kabeerah” for feminine eyes and “عيون كبيرة ‘ayun kabeer” for masculine eyes.
