Please, add division of animate/inanimate to the neutral gender. A lot of words describing young animals, incl. humans, are neutral. --Alexdubr (talk) 14:27, 30 November 2013 (UTC)

I added it. Now you can use "n-an" for neuter animate, and "n-in" for neuter inanimate. —CodeCat 14:40, 30 November 2013 (UTC)

Are there any differences in endings for inanimate/animate neuters? In other words, is the difference purely semantic, or somehow grammatical? --Ivan Štambuk (talk) 04:24, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

Yes, like in Russian, the difference is in the accusative plural. --Anatoli ^{(обсудить}/^вклад) 04:36, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

Cf: чадо and чудо. What I found, though, the references often provide two accusative forms for animate neuters - one matching genitive and one matching nominative. I found that OK (also for Russian). You can say in both Russian and Ukrainian: я ба́чу (uk) /я ви́жу (ru) чудо́вища OR чудо́вищ - "I see monsters". --Anatoli ^{(обсудить}/^вклад) 04:42, 5 December 2013 (UTC)
