What is the masculine and feminine of monarch?

There isn't a distinct masculine and feminine form of "monarch" in English.

However, we use the terms king and queen to refer to the male and female rulers, respectively.

Here's a breakdown:

* Monarch: This is the general term for a sovereign ruler, regardless of gender.

* King: This refers to a male monarch.

* Queen: This refers to a female monarch.

So, while "monarch" itself doesn't have gendered forms, we use "king" and "queen" to specify the gender of the ruler.
