Comparative analysis of nouns in the Romance languages

The scientific works are analyzed and a comparative analysis of the noun in Romance languages (on the basis of Spanish, Portuguese, Italian and French) is made. The possibility of simultaneous learning of Spanish, Portuguese, Italian and French based on the lexical and grammatical similarities of these languages is discussed. Comparative analysis of nouns revealed the following areas of convergence and divergence in the lexical and grammatical structure of the Romance languages: nouns have common similarities in gender identification of nouns by their endings, the formation of feminine nouns and formation of plural nouns. However, French unlike Spanish, Portuguese and Italian, has a complex system of forming feminine and plural. This fact distinguishes French language from Spanish, Portuguese and Italian. Also Italian has a specific system of forming plural, which is very different from that of Spanish, Portuguese and French. Special cases of formation of plural forms of nouns have their own characteristics and are markedly different in every language, but uses of nouns are similar and have common rules. It is concluded that on the basis of revealed areas of convergence and divergence in the lexical and grammatical structure of the Romance languages, it is possible to develop a method of simultaneous study of several foreign languages of this group.
