Gender-specific nouns

Показать описание
In many languages, the gender of nouns is divided into three categories; masculine, feminine and neuter.
Male people and animals belong to the masculine gender (e.g. boy, son, or uncle) and female people and animals belong to the feminine gender (e.g. girl, daughter, or aunt).

In English, most nouns are neither masculine or feminine. They do not refer specifically to males or females. They are neuter.

A gender-specific noun refers only to males or only to females. Gender-specific nouns traditionally have separate forms for males and females.
Nowadays, people prefer not to use feminine forms of some nouns. For example, we can use the word ‘actor’ for both male and female.
