# gender_both Article
Some nouns appear in both a [masculine](https://git.door43.org/Door43/en-uhg/src/master/content/gender_masculine/02.md) and a [feminine](https://git.door43.org/Door43/en-uhg/src/master/content/gender_feminine/02.md) form. Other words have only one form, but that single form can be either grammatically-masculine or grammatically-feminine. Words classified as "gender both" are usually nouns or adjectives.

Other words have only one form, but that single form can be either grammatically-masculine or grammatically-feminine. These kinds of words are classified as "gender both", and they are usually nouns or adjectives. Sometimes the context can determine the gender of a particular instance of a "gender both" noun (see examples below for שֶׁמֶשׁ), but sometimes the context is inconclusive (see example below for נֹגַהּ).
