Just an update on the gender-of-animals thing I wrote a few days ago as a branch-off from the post about shelves, I asked a question about it on iTalki the other day and got some really interesting answers and I’ll probably go back to that from time to time when I need to write about animals for some reason.

Here’s another odd phrase I came across today, this time from near the end of “A Costa Dos Murmúrios”:
