Fuad Aliyev
Fuad (Arabic: ''fū’ād, fou’ād'') (also spelled Fouad, Foud, Fuaad or Foad) is a masculine Arabic given name, meaning "heart"—the beating circulating heart, the concept of "mind and spirit". Its root word is the Arabic verb ''fa’ada'' (Arabic: ), meaning "burning or a flame", and ''lahmun fa'eed'', meaning a "roasted meat on a fire". It is used to describe a "heart that is inflamed with emotion". Therefore, it may share similarities with another Arabic verb ''fada’'' () meaning "to sacrifice"—"to sacrifice, give, risk oneself for (something/cause)". It was borne by two different kings of Egypt. Originally an Arabic given name, it became widespread throughout the Middle East during the 9th and 12th centuries.

Grammatical Gender
In linguistics, a grammatical gender system is a specific form of a noun class system, where nouns are assigned to gender categories that are often not related to the real-world qualities of the entities denoted by those nouns. In languages with grammatical gender, most or all nouns inherently carry one value of the grammatical category called ''gender''. The values present in a given language, of which there are usually two or three, are called the ''genders'' of that language. Some authors use the term "grammatical gender" as a synonym of "noun class", whereas others use different definitions for each. Many authors prefer "noun classes" when none of the inflections in a language relate to Sex–gender distinction, sex or gender. According to one estimate, gender is used in approximately half of the world's languages. According to one definition: "Genders are classes of nouns reflected in the behavior of associated words." Overview Languages with grammatical gender usually h ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
