During its evolution, English, unlike other Germanic languages, underwent radical changes, transforming from a synthetic language into an analytical one. This article deals how the grammatical gender which was widely used in Old English, gradually abandoned the language and was replaced by natural gender, and the features of the use of the gender category in Modern English.
