Gender Both
===========
Summary
-------
A word is classified as "both gender" if it contains both a masculine
and a feminine form, or if a single form is masculine in
some contexts and feminine in other contexts.

Article
-------
Some words appear in both a
:ref:`masculine<gender_masculine>`
and a
:ref:`feminine<gender_feminine>`
form. 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).
