In English there are no masculine or feminine forms. English uses gender specific nouns for male or female, such as male and female.Centuries ago, when England was invaded and occupied by different groups bringing their own languages, the people incorporated the languages of their conquerors into their native languages.

Yes. For example, alto (tall) is for boys and altais for girls.Alto-alta is an adjective.Example of nouns:Car: coche is "el coche" with the masculine article. So it is a masculine noun.Mother: madre is "la madre" with the feminine article.
"Estos" is the masculine plural form of "this/these" in Spanish, while "estas" is the feminine plural form. So, "estos" would be used for masculine nouns and "estas" for feminine nouns when referring to multiple items.
The suffix -ist is a suffix which is added at the end of a noun which corresponds to those verbs which end in the suffix -ise (which is spelt in American English as the suffix -ize) or those nouns which end in the suffix -ism. The suffix -ist is used to denote a person who either practices something or a person who is concerned with something or a person who holds certain principles, doctrines, etc. For example, a person who apologises is known as an apologist, a person who writes plays is known as a dramatist, a person who works on a machine is known as a machinist, a person who believes in realism is known as a realist, a person who believes in socialism is known as a socialist, a person who believes in capitalism is known as a capitalist and a person who believes in communism is known as a communist.

In English, almost all nouns (with the obvious exception of some proper nouns) are genderless. In languages where nouns do have gender, it's very nearly random. A word which is masculine in one language may well be feminine in another. Even within a single language, you generally just have to "know" which words are which. In French, nouns which take the adjective "Le" are masculine while those which take the adjective "La" are feminine.
No. In English, there's no such thing as gendered nouns in the sense that those exist in most other European languages (there are sex-differentiating nouns, like "cow" vs. "bull", but from a grammatical standpoint they're treated identically).

I don't know of the word "nutar," but "neuter," pronounced the same, refers in some languages to a gender category: "neither masculine nor feminine." Remember, there is no real grammatical gender among nouns in English. There are masculine (he,him,his), feminine (she,her,hers) and neuter (it,its) pronouns. The masculine and feminine agree with nouns indicating, respectively, male or female animate beings. Neuter pronouns agree with inanimate nouns. You can call those nouns neuter if you like, but, apart from pronoun agreement, the category has practically no significance. Not all nouns with neuter pronoun agreement should be called neuter. Names of animate nouns of indeterminate sex - cat, dog - are not neuter, but can take a neuter pronoun, (or a masc. or fem. if you happen to know the sex of your particular cat or dog.
It can be (precipitate, neonate), but it is usually a verb form when added to nouns (alien-alienate, decor-decorate). The suffix -ion or -tion is a noun form for those verbs. The ending -ate is also seen in adjectives (profligate).
Latin nouns are either masculine, feminine or neuter. The nominative case generally indicates gender, e.g., nouns that end in -us are masculine, those that end in -a are feminine and those that end in -um are neuter. Not all nouns follow this rule, but many do.
