An example of this is that the word "Spirit" in Aramaic is linguistically feminine - and is so portrayed in the scriptures (with regards to verbs, enclitics and posessives, etc.)

This can be hard on Western ears. <!-- s:dontgetit: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/dontgetit.gif" alt=":dontgetit:" title="Dont Get It" /><!-- s:dontgetit: -->
