Resumo
The present study is based on the historical and linguistic analysis of the gender category in the French language of the XVI century, presented in the grammatical treatises by J. Palsgrave, J. Dubois and L. Maigret. The purpose of the work is to identify key trends in the development of the genus category and the causes of variation in generic usage (genus dubium). The methodology includes a comparative analysis of the theoretical provisions and empirical data presented in the works of these authors. The results of the study demonstrate the influence of the Latin language, phonetic changes and semantic factors on the formation of the gender system, as well as the lack of strict codification as the cause of variability. The contribution of the analysis of early grammatical descriptions to the understanding of the processes of normalization of the French language and the mechanisms of linguistic change is emphasized.
