Nouns in Portuguese all have grammatical gender, and this gender impacts some grammatical inflections. Grammatical gender is different from personal gender identity―rather, words referring to a generic individual with unknown gender identity still carries grammatical gender. For example, the word "pessoa" ("person") is grammatically feminine, but indicates no specific gender of the person referred to. The gender inflection appears explicitly when in the context of an inflectied adjective. With the feminine nouns such as "cidade" ("city"; plural "cidades"), the adjective meaning "beautiful" (currently written generically as "belo" in dictionaries) would become "cidade bela", "cidades belas" ("beautiful city/cities"). Likewise, this works with a masculine noun such as "carro" ("car"; plural "carros"): "carro belo", "carros belos" ("beautiful car/cars").
