A linguistic question: is the Serbo-Croatian word for bicycle masculine, and is that the reason for naming the bike with a masculine form of the word cat? Or do you just think of Machak that way? I'm tempted to ask because someone earlier in the thread mentioned anthropomorphizing the bike instead of assuming it was just gender naturally assigned by your native language.
