Identify the 'masculine gender noun' from the given sentence:
The heir to be chosen was going to face a tough task in the evening. [Intermediate]
The correct answer for the given sentence is Option C, Heir.
The given sentence has the following nouns, which are: the heir, evening, face and task. Out of the given options, Option A, face is a word linked to the body part, and doesn’t have a gender of its own, while option D, evening is a point of time devoid of any kind of gender. Option B, task is actually a neuter gender noun which is purely materialistic.
This leaves us with Option C, heir, which is actually the male successor in a specific hierarchy or a kingdom.
Thus, Option C is the correct answer.
