Is the french word “groupe” masculine or feminine?

Question

Is the French word "groupe" masculine or feminine? It seems like a generic term, and while it looks feminine, I recall it can be a bit tricky. Should I say "le groupe" or "la groupe"? Additionally, if you have a moment, I know that "premier" is masculine, but what about "deuxième," "troisième," and so on? They all end with "e," so are they feminine?

Groupe is masculine. Le groupe.premier = masculinepremi&egrave;re = feminiinedeuxi&egrave;me = bothtroisi&egrave;me = bothquatri&egrave;me = bothcinqui&egrave;me = bothetc.example: &ldquo;le deuxi&egrave;me groupe, la deuxi&egrave;me &eacute;cole&rdquo;. It doesn&rsquo;t change.______________BTWWhat Martin told you only works for Spanish: it&rsquo;s nonsense in French. There is no way to accurately predict the gender of a word based on its spelling &ndash; unless it has a special feminne or masculine only ending (such as &ldquo;-eux&rdquo; or &ldquo;-euse&rdquo;, &ldquo;-tion&rdquo;, etc)examples:un jour (masculine)une tour (feminine)un livre (a book) (m)une livre (a pound) (f)un roi (m)une loi (f)un mus&eacute;e (m)une fus&eacute;e (f)un mage (m)une cage (f)etc&hellip;.

Really generic word. It LOOKS feminine, but I think I recall it being tricky…I just want to know if I should say “le groupe” or “la groupe”.
Also, if you have time, I know premier is masculine, but what about deuxième, troisième, et cetera? They end with E’s, so are…

Groupe is a masuline word, and so are the other E words. In french all words ending with E are masculine.

(and et cetera doesnt end in E!!)

Heres the M&F french system (surely you should know this……)

M – O, E, I, U, constanant F – only A
