    Some Slavic languages apparently also have distinct masculine and feminine versions of verbs, which match the speaker if in the first person. Apparently so does Icelandic (to the point where an Icelandic modernist novel was titled “When I Got Pregnant”, though in the masculine form)

      That’s basically every Indo-European language except English.

        I think that’s adjectives not verbs but then the language in my post may have only been nouns
