A question for English learners
In English, some nouns add an "-ess" ending when the word refers to a woman, e.g. host /hostess actor/actress adulterer / adulteress baron/baroness.
But, I have just read that there is one English noun, that refers only to a man, and is never used and cannot be used to refer to a woman.
Can you guess the word?
