Abstract. In the article we will try and show that our experience provides a starting point from which we conceptualize natural gender. It is this conceptualization, i.e. the fact that A can be seen as inherently linked with B, and not the actual masculine vs. feminine, of human vs. non-human, distinctions, that may account for some uses or gender as a linguistic category.
Key words: Gender, masculine, feminine, neuter, grammatical category.
Feminist linguistics have established that the use of masculine generics (MG), i.e. linguistic
forms that are used sex-specically in reference to men and generically in reference to
mixed groups,

In English, the four genders of noun are masculine, feminine, common, and neuter. Masculine nouns refer to words for a male figure or male member of a species (i.e. man, boy, actor, horse, etc.) Feminine nouns refer to female figures or female members of a species (i.e. woman, girl, actress, mare, etc.) On the issues of gender grammatical category in linguistic literature although there is much work to be done, this issue is far from a definitive conclusion. There is no clear opinion on the question of the existence of a grammatical gender. This term refers to a wide or narrow range of events[1]. In many languages such as Romance as well as in some Germanic languages, the rod grammatical category is associated with the opposition “masculine” - “feminin”. Unlike some other languages, English does not have a combination of verb and person forms, but it is replaced by a specific type of adaptation the diamond adaptation which can be understood using only a few types of rhymes[2].
In English words that represent both gender neutral words masculinity rod words. Feminin gender words, on the other hand, are made in English by adding the masculine gender - ess suffix. This is also the case in English phraseology. The results of the analysis showed that most of the phraseologies are applied to both sexes, despite the fact that they contain a compound belonging to the "male".
