In german forks are feminine and spoons are masculine. I hope speaking German isn't satanic for having trans-utensils.
In romanian, both are feminine and knives are the secret third gender
Sounds awesome. At what level of the game is it unlocked?
In French they're both feminine and knives are masculine.
Hell yeah, I want my language to be satanic!
German is probably a fair choice then.
It sounds Satanic but when you actually hear Satanic chants/rites/etc. they're usually in Latin. If someone were to make a language that mixed Germanic and Romance sources, then, it would truly be the language of evil.
If such an abomination exists, then I have some very good news for you and other Anglophones.
Which gender do sporks land in?
In German it's called "Der Göffel" a mix of "Der Löffel" (spoon) and "Die Gabel" (fork). So it's masculine from the Löffel part.
It's funny how the word mix is backwards in German/English. English has fork at the end of the word and German spoon.
