Grammatical gender is a grammatical property, which assigns morphological paradigmatic series to groups (cf. Corbett 1991, 4) based on criteria that partly rely on semantic properties (the so-called natural gender) and that has reflections on syntactic patterns such as alignment. When a word is borrowed, it requires re-encoding in order to be adapted to the morphology of the target language: this re-encoding includes the assignment of a gender, provided that the target language has gender categories.

Article

One or more contact-induced changes that affect the structural layers of one or more languages. Contrary to sporadic lexical interference, it involves intensive contact between speaker populations, usually for an extended period of time (for a fine-grained analysis of the types of scenarios in which this kind of interference occurs in the modern world, cf. Thomason 2006).

Examples

See phonological interference, morphological interference, syntactic interference.
