Grammar: Gender

Question:

Which of the following is a correct pair of masculine and feminine gender?

Options:

Wizard:Witch

Boar:Boaress

Bachelor:Bachelor

Chairman:Chairwomen

Correct Answer:

Wizard:Witch

Explanation:

The correct pair of masculine and feminine gender is Wizard:Witch.

  • Boar:Boaress is not a correct pair because boaress is not a commonly used word.
  • Bachelor:Bachelor is not a correct pair because both words are masculine.
  • Chairman:Chairwomen is not a correct pair because the feminine form of chairman is chairwoman.

The feminine form of wizard is witch. A witch is a female magician, while a wizard is a male magician. So, the pair wizard:witch is a correct pair of masculine and feminine gender.
