Gender in French

In french it is very important to pay attention towards gender as we do in Hindi language. Like if I ask you what is the gender of truck or pen in Hindi? Your answer will be masculine. On the other hand if I ask you what is the gender of table? then your answer will be feminine. Here the point is each and every thing has it gender. In English we have three gender masculine, feminine and neuter gender but in French we have two gender i.e masculine and feminine.
