All nouns in Modern Standard Arabic are either masculine or feminine.
Adjectives must follow the nouns they modify in terms of gender.
In Arabic, all nouns must have a gender, e.g. the word for chair (كرسي) is masculine while the word for table ( ةطاول ) is feminine.
Learners of Arabic should learn the gender of all nouns as they meet them

kalbكلب (masculine dog) è kalba ةكلب (dog feminine)
