Let me add an interssting exception for the "ung" always feminine rule, I learned it at university. The origin of a coordinate system is called "der Ursprung".

[@MrLAntrim]

It isn't a suffix in that word. It is simply a part of the verb "springen" in the Perfekt tense "gesprungen" added to a prefix "Ur-" (basically meaning primal) and turned into the noun Ursprung (primal jump, the jumping off point of something, origin). I get where you are coming from, however, as learners don't usually know/care about this detail.

Serbo-Croatian
To find out the gender all you have to do is look at the ending of a noun
You could use nominative singular for that
If the noun ends in A then it's feminine
Ova Žena (Die Frau)
Ova Flaša (Die Flasche)
Ova Špigla (Der Spiegel)
Usw.
If it ends in O and E (less common) it's neuter
Ovo Ogledalo (mirror)
Ovo Ludilo (madness)
Ovo Zanimanje (occupation)
Ovo Dijete (kid)
Ovo Glupiranje (this folling around)
Usw.
For masculine it ends with everything else
Ovaj Čovjek (man)
Ovaj Stol (table)
Ovaj Kompjuter (computer)
Usw.
