Gender

Gender is a category of noun. There are four types of Genders.

Masculine Gender: The names of all male persons or animals are said to be of the Masculine Gender.

Example: man, actor, uncle, hero, king, lion etc.

Feminine Gender: The names of all female persons or animals are said to be of the Feminine Gender.

Example: woman, aunt, daughter, actress, queen, lioness etc.

Neuter Gender: Things without life cannot be distinguished either as male or female; hence the names of such things are said to be of the Neuter Gender. Example: house, knife, tree, chair, table, book, ball etc.

Common Gender: Names that can be used for both males and females are said to be of the Common Gender.

Example: child, parent, student etc.

Methods to distinguish the Feminine Noun from the Masculine Noun;

1. By making change in the last part of the word.

2. By adding a word after or before.

3. By changing the word.

Sometimes the form is slightly changed before –ess is added.

3. Objects known for their beauty, gentleness and grace are used as Feminine-Gender Noun. For Example: The earth is a unique planet. Her beauty is adorable.
