Summary/Abstract: Nouns named animals have not been studied in depth because of the great interest in exploring the nature of the grammatical gender of nouns for persons. Their behavior can be determined as similar in the process of gender assignment as regards the semantic component sex to the names for persons due to the close relationships between human beings and animals.
