If you are talking about ships, you use the female grammatical gender, even if the ship is named after a male person. For example, you would say: I took the MS Wilhelm yesterday. The waves were crashing over *her* railing.</div>

<p><font face="Candara">In German, you could write this (translated verbatim):</font></p>
<p><font face="Candara">We miss our cat. She died yesterday. <Some male name> will not be forgotten. At least he lived a long and happy life.</font></p>
<p><font face="Candara">That works because "cat" (Katze) has female grammatical gender, but the individual animal has natural gender. When you shift the focus by using the name, you'll need to switch gender for the pronoun.</font></p>
<p><font face="Candara">There may be even better examples of this. But if your AI doesn't know about a world outside a sentence, there will be translation patterns where a male pronoun in the source becomes a female pronoun in the target somewhat randomly.</font></p>
