Eittlandic inherited from Old Norse a gender system divided into three
genders: male, female, and neuter. Due to the presence of declensions
with strong nouns and adjectives, its pronouns, and to a certain
degree different articles, it can still be said Eittlandic is a
gendered language although it doesnt hold much importance in its
grammar anymore. Since strong nouns arent productive anymore and weak
nouns lost all obvious gender differences, we can even consider gender
as not productive anymore in Eittlandic and bound to eventually
disappear.
In case a strong noun is used with a strong adjective, both will agree
in number and gender.

Per /Hawkins Universals/:
$Posp \supset ((AdjN \vee RelN \supset DemN\ \& \ NumN\ \& \ PossN)\ \& \ (DemN \vee NumN \vee PossN \supset GenN))$
Adjectives precede nouns, therefore demonstratives, numerals, and
possessives also preceed the noun. Since they do, the language must
also allow genitives to preceed the noun. The only element in the
Postpositional rule that does not precede the noun are relative
clauses.
Eittlandic also has prepositions. Genitive can follow the noun,
therefore relative clauses must follow the noun. Therefore, we have:
| NPosp | DemN | NumN | PossN | AdjN | GenN | NRel |
This is language C as per Artifexians [[https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ZJV1C8g-u8PbZIEHp8t7JT8SSyY7ZetEZ5oBJJn0g2U/edit][list of postpositional
