well I could ask you like why the Germans decided to for the most part assign words to der/die/das randomly, but don't think you could tell me
otherwise... of course I have questions and etc, but it would take you awhile to explain it... because as soon as you answer one, I have another, and so on...

you answered it yourself, it's random

nah, I'd guess it developed from the Latin genders of the words

 

[Sipyloidea]

I can tell you one thing, everything that ends on -chen is neutral (das)

 

[Sipyloidea]

things that end on "ei" are most likely female and things that end on "er" are most likely masculine. BUT that is only valid for words that developed those endings from other words. I know, it's weird

 

[xforeverxmetalx]

I guess she meant to Germany

ah okay, well apparently not

 

[Sipyloidea]

ah okay, well apparently not

I guess with anytime soon she meant withing the next few weeks
