Nouns gender : at first , there is no distinctions between masculine , feminine and neuter in English nouns . But gender could be shown by different words or different forms .

You should knew that some nouns can be used for either a masculine or a feminine subject .

Examples :

doctor .............cousin......... teacher........ cook ..etc

Ali is my cousin . He is my cousin
Sarah is my cousin . She is my cousin
Ahmed is a doctor . He is a doctor
Nadia is a doctor . She is a doctor



Notice : You should knew that you can not make the distinction by adding the words male , or female to the words .

Examples :

a male cousin , a female teacher

But for profession we can add the word " woman " :

Example :

a woman doctor , a woman journalist
