"The elephant swims."

Translation: हाथी तैरता है।

[B96lXSTM]

Why not tairti

[MarcinM85]

Because हाथी is masculine. Usually nouns ending in ई are feminine but there are exceptions like this one.

[Ruth72207]

Why is there no gender listed for elephant? Just as other animals cats (f), dogs (m) are so why not elephant??
