  • That’s not memorizing the genders. You see the word, you know the word.

    I know that the Spanish word for table is mesa. I didn’t sit there and think “the base part is mes and the a means it’s female”. The word is just mesa. And la mesa looks right because I’ve seen it. I didn’t think “it needs to be la because it’s feminine”.

    try memorizing the correct grammatical gender

    Americans don’t memorize all that shit for English either. We just start using words. German is the same. Don’t try and learn it out of a textbook, just start talking and reading.

    And the best part is you can pronounce their words pretty logically.
