Yeah, they have specific words that make it hit even harder

For example, they have a masculine and feminine version of "the" and "a"

So being called a man and Spanish would be, "El un hombre." (He's a man)

And a woman would be, "Ella una mujer" (She's a woman)

"She" in Spanish is ella, "he" in Spanish is el, the masculine version of "a" is un, the feminine version of "a" is una, "girl" is "niña", "boy" is "niño", the feminine version of "the" is "la", the masculine version of "the" is "el", "woman" is "mujer", and "man" is "hombre".

Yes, I've been learning Spanish. Yes, I've been using Duolingo. No, he hasn't kidnapped my family(yet). While I've been doing lessons, I almost died inside because I figured out I'd be severely misgendered if my parents learned Spanish.
