Nouns in the English language do not have genders. I think you are asking for examples of pairs of nouns that refer to people or animals of each sex. Here are some examples:
Woman and man;
Cow and bull;
Duchess and duke;
Hind and hart;
Mistress and master;
Bitch and dog.

∙ 13y agoYour question doesn't really make sense in the context of the French language. All nouns are either masculine or feminine, and all adjectives and pronouns have both a masculine form and a feminine form (occasionally they are the same). Any word modifying or replacing a given noun must match that noun's gender.
For example:
J'aime bien ce livre. Il est assez intéressant. -- I like this book. It is rather interesting.
J'aime bien cette sculpture. Elle est assez intéressante. -- I like this sculpture. It is rather interesting.
In English only one word changes (book -> sculpture). But in French all the words relating to that noun also change, since livre is masculine while sculpture is feminine.
