Gender[psor]: possessor’s gender

Values: Fem Masc Neut

Possessive adjectives and pronouns may have two different genders: that of the possessed object (gender agreement with modified noun) and that of the possessor (lexical feature, inherent gender). The Gender[psor] feature captures the possessor’s gender.

In the Czech examples below, the masculine gender implies using one of the suffixes -ův, -ova, -ovo, and the feminine gender implies using one of -in, -ina, -ino.

Masc: masculine possessor

Examples

Fem: feminine possessor

Examples

Neut: neuter possessor

Neuter possessor is only possible with possessive pronouns and it is always ambiguous with masculine.
