Well, the grammar is still quite Germanic. Much moreso than Latinate.

tigerjimmy, i found this online. It seems English did have gender for nouns in the past. Weird.

"How and why did grammatical gender, found in Old English and in other Germanic languages, gradually disappear from English and get replaced by a system where the gender of nouns and the use of personal pronouns depend on the natural gender of the referent? How is this shift related to ‘irregular agreement’ (such as she for ships) and ‘sexist’ language use (such as generic he) in Modern English, and how is the language continuing to evolve in these respects?"

Just glad to hear it's healing.

>but it's looking much better.

Good!

I would keep it dry and let it breathe. Not too much of strips and such things onto it, it needs just air and be dry. But you've already chosen the right way, hope it will be good soon.
