Usage notes

More information A user suggests that this Luxembourgish entry be cleaned up, giving the reason: “Here we'd need some input from a native speaker for the sociolinguistic details. Originally a woman became "si" with marriage, but this is surely obsolete. The neuter seems to be increasing in use, but would one say "hatt" about an older lady one doesn't know, or one's female boss, etc.?”. ...
  • Female persons are predominantly treated as grammatically neuter (as in some German dialects). This is unvariably the case with underage girls and generally also with adult women whom one would address by their given names.
  • With things, the full form hatt is usually replaced with dat, which in turn never refers to people. The unstressed form et is common with both female persons and things.
