What is "masculine"?

Masculine is a grammatical category that refers to nouns, pronouns, and adjectives associated with male characteristics or qualities. In languages that mark gender, masculine forms are often used to denote male people or animals. For example, in Spanish, the word "ingeniero," meaning "engineer," is masculine, and it is used with masculine adjectives, such as "alto," meaning "tall," to form "ingeniero alto," meaning "tall engineer." In English, masculine is primarily reflected in pronouns, such as "he" and "him." Understanding the masculine gender is essential for maintaining grammatical agreement and clarity in communication, especially in languages with specific gender rules.
