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.
