Tecklovian has two genders: animate and inanimate. The animate refers to people, mammals, birds, reptiles and large predatory fish. All other organisms and all objects belong to the inanimate gender. Nouns have no morphological marker for gender but there is gender concord with third person pronouns, third person possessive prefixes and third person pronominal markers on verbs. | |||
