Excerpt from A German-English Dictionary of Terms Used in Medicine and the Allied Sciences In respect of genders there may be here and there an apparent discrepancy. This arises from the absence in German of a definite rule for the gender of imported words. Virchow always maintained - and I must confess that his view appears to me the more logical that such terms should be of the same gender as in their native languages. Others, however, assimilate the gender to that of the German equivalent for the word. The former would say die Cervix, the latter - to correspond with der Hals - der Cervix. An interesting example is the German word for tubercle. Etymologically derived from the Latin tuberculum, it should strictly be called das Tuberkel. In common parlance, however, it is brought into line with der Knoten, and is used in the masculine, but in von Duden's well known dictionary we find die Tuberkel, corresponding, no doubt, with die Geschwulst.
