There are only two genders in the french language - musculine and feminine. The article “le” goes before a masculine noun, and the article “la” goes before a feminine noun. If the noun is plural, the article becomes the plural “les”, but the noun remains masculine or feminine. It’s as though the english article “the” had a masculine version and a feminine version that matched the noun it preceded.

I'm convinced that English language evolution was a major contributor to both the English Empire and the USA rise to a world power.

Maybe that's why the commies are trying to twist and mangle our language.
