Gender in English is different from the gender of nouns in Serbian language, as in the Serbian language is gender and the fact the so-called "gender" and gender of nouns in English follow the so-called "natural family". Gender nouns are divided into nouns: masculine, female gender (feminine), the middle branch (neuter) and common genus (common gender).
There are two numbers and nouns: singular and plural.
In English, nouns are divided into countable and uncountable.
