Masculine and Feminine Gender List 2021
Masculine nouns refer to words for a male figure or male member of a species (i.e. man, boy, actor, horse, etc.)
Feminine nouns refer to female figures or female members of a species (i.e. woman, girl, actress, mare, etc.)
Examples
| Masculine | Feminine | Gender-neutral |
|---|---|---|
| man | woman | person |
| father | mother | parent |
| boy | girl | child |
| uncle | aunt | |
| husband | wife | spouse |
| actor | actress | |
| prince | princess | |
| waiter | waitress | server |
| rooster | hen | chicken |
| stallion | mare | horse |
Common nouns refer to members of a species and don’t specify the gender (i.e. parent, friend, client, student, etc.)
Neuter nouns refer to things that have no gender (i.e. rock, table, pencil, etc.)
Many nouns that refer to people’s roles and jobs can be used for either a masculine or a feminine subject, like for example cousin, teenager, teacher, doctor, student, friend, colleague
Examples
- Mary is my friend. She is a doctor.
- Peter is my cousin. He is a doctor.
- Arthur is my friend. He is a student.
- Jane is my cousin. She is a student.
It is possible to make the distinction for these neutral words by adding the words male or female.
Examples
- Sam is a female doctor.
- No, he is not my boyfriend, he is just a male friend.
- I have three female cousins and two male cousins.
Infrequently, nouns describing things without a gender are referred to with a gendered pronoun to show familiarity. It is also correct to use the gender-neutral pronoun (it).
Examples
- I love my car. She (the car) is my greatest passion.
- France is popular with her (France’s) neighbors at the moment.
- I travelled from England to New York on the Queen Elizabeth; she (the Queen Elizabeth) is a great ship.
