Usage notes

  • Female persons are predominantly treated as grammatically neuter (as in some German dialects). This is unvariably the case for children and young girls. Adult and older women may be treated as grammatically feminine, though this is now rarely done in private circles and may sound formal or, in certain contexts, deprecative.
  • 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.
