In this paper, we will look at some special words that change depending on the gender. We have focused on greetings, congratulations and curses as they are used by female and male gender, so the content is the same, but it differs by who is using it.To see this difference closely, we surveyed some young women and men, where through the questions that we asked them, we saw the difference in their dialect.Based on ideas, or thoughts the language and gender in the city of Tetovo, we have many different opinions where most of them are rooted on the patriarchal system, that the man's word is above all, but from the work that we have done we see that young people have diluted this opinion by giving more rights to women's speech and with this they have clearly changed the old opinion.Men think that women talk more in relation to them, they often call them "word machines", that is, they only talk, while men are less talkative but more precise in what they say. When we refer to the special dialect as mentioned above, we see that women really have more expressions, they know how to give the greeting better, are more involved in a given situation and know better how to manage it with words, whether good or bad and with this they create, in most cases, a positive atmosphere, while men are more direct, they don't say a lot and this often makes them look colder in different situations. All these speeches are also analyzed from the linguistic point of view.
Keywords: Discourse, report, difference, speech, gender, etc.
