Depending on the language, typical gender distinctions include masculine/feminine, masculine/feminine/neuter, and animate/inanimate.  Not all languages have grammatical gender; for example, some languages have a single pronoun corresponding to the English "he," "she," and "it." In [[Hebrew]], the word for "it" is the same as the word for "this", so "I like it" would literally translate as "I like this".
