Wizard’s Wisdom: Gender Matters

In Russian, all nouns have a gender (masculine, feminine, or neuter) which affects the form of adjectives and numbers used with them. For colors, remember to match the gender of the noun with the color adjective. For example, “red car” would be “красная машина” (krasnaya mashina) with feminine agreement.
