-## Gender
-
-### Individuals
-
-Nouns' gender are arbitrarily assigned, based on the philosophy.
-Generally, it is quite intuitive, for example, (tree), (seed), (wood) are wood.
-However, there are some cases it is unclear, like (liver) being wood, and even
-counter-intuitive, like (flower) being fire.
-This is because liver is is controlled by wood in the philosophy,
-and flower represents the outburst state which matches more with fire.
-
-For people, gender is determined by their date of birth (people born in wood
-months are wood).  For people who can use magic, their magic affinity is their
-gender.
-
-### Mixed groups

-The gender of a group of objects with different genders is determined by the *majority*
-group.  The majority group is defined as the group with:
-
-- more than half of the group
-- has more than 10 members, if any other group has more than one member.
-
-## Number
-
-- singular: zero or one
-- several: two to ten, inclusive
-- plural: more than ten
