Why is it ki dost and not ka dost when the word dost is masculine? Is just not coming to me

[Gerard454906]

It's about Julia, she's a female friend. दोस्त is also used for girl friend.

[maz1269]

But I believe the sex should still match "friend" and not "Julia", since the former is the object and the latter is the subject. Is this just a situation where "dost" can be both m. and f.?

[UrwaShoaib]

Yeah 'dost' is technically male but people use it as a gender neutral term. Here because julia is a female we use 'ki'. If it was Bob instead of Julia, we would have said "Bob Aamir ka dost hai". Hope that helps

[maz1269]

I see, thanks! Makes sense. Similar situation in Russian and some other languages.

[UrwaShoaib]

there is a term for a female friend specifically too if you want to know "saheli". but "dost" is more frequently used

I put down for this "Julia is a friend of Amir" and it wasn't accepted

[Sandra669766]

Julia's friend us Aamir. Why is this wrong?

The sentence says - जूलिया आमिर की दोस्त है|
If it was आमिर जूलिया का दोस्त है, one of the translations could be Julia's friend is Aamir
