This paper deals with the relationship between language and gender and it researches how much politically correct forms are present in Croatian and Italian language. These languages are similar to each other when it comes to their grammatical and morphological features since they both have grammatical gender and a series of possibilities for the formation of semantically motivated feminine forms. The main focus of the paper are the results of the questionnaires conducted among Italian and Croatian speakers. They are analyzed according to the parameters of gender, age, region and level of education in order to see whether there are differences among data subjects based on the mentioned parameters. In addition, the results are compared with the recommended non-discriminatory forms in order to see whether the language reality corresponds to the recommendations. It can be concluded that both languages have the possibility of forming gender nondiscriminatory forms, with the bigger tendency to politically correct language among Croatian data subjects.
