And this is how I am going to remember the word птица. http://www.creative.su/sites/creative.su/data/XmUserFiles/userfiles/user9083/bezymjannyjj78785d.jpg
Pizza птица! This is better than my other method of remembering the difference! ;-D
Мой is a masculine form, моя is feminine. (I can see you're learning Portuguese, so мой = meu, моя = minha.)
There's also a third form, моё, of neuter gender.
Sim, um pouco. :)
Now what you do when the bird is actually male I couldn't tell you.
If this is absolutely crucial to tell the bird is male, you could add an apposition, «моя́ пти́ца-саме́ц», or something like this.
THIS CLEARS UP SO MANY THINGS! Thank you!! I've been struggling to learn when to use the right "my" where.
Is it птичка (according to Google Translate), or птица (according to Duolingo)? Which is correct- птичка or птица??
