Abstrakt: This paper provides an exhaustive description of the gender system in the Tsumkwe Juǀ'hoan variety of Ju (Kx'a), a gender system that is largely insensitive to number and natural sex distinctions. The paper also highlights some important points of divergence in a closely related variety due to contact interference while nevertheless maintaining culturally salient aspects of the gender system.
