Dutch is a peculiar language in that certain nouns have more than
one gender. This first academic study of double gender nouns (DGNs)
in the Dutch language investigates this anomaly. First assigned a
lexicological classification, the DGNs are then analysed
contextually by means of a corpus study. DGNs are shown to be part
of a generalized restructuring of Dutch gender as a whole. No
longer a fringe phenomenon in the Dutch gender system, this study
shows them to be catalysts in the transition towards a (more)
semantic system, a process that is much more advanced than commonly
assumed.
