The gender morpheme in American Spanish diverges slightly from the Peninsular Spanish norm. And even more significant: existing variations are alternative solutions allowed by the language system. Even though usage makes a given solution prevail historically over others, reduced instability, shared all over the Hispanic environment, is kept principally because of the reinterpretation of complex generic distinctions that move away from more general oppositions.
