Answer: True

Step-by-step explanation:

All diminutives, i.e. nouns having the diminiutive ending “-chen” or “-lein” are neuter in the singular. All nouns ending in the suffix “-ung,” “-heit,” “-keit,” or “-in” are feminine. All nouns ending in “-er” are masculine and refer to someone or something that does something.
