In English there are no masculine or feminine forms. English uses gender specific nouns for a male or a female.

The noun 'witch' is a common gender noun, a word for a male or a female.

Most of society's understanding of witches comes from fiction, where a 'witch' can be whatever the author wishes to portray.

There are also followers of the Wicca religion called Wiccans who are sometimes referred to as witches.

Additional thoughts:

A popular misconception is that "witches" are all female. This is incorrect (and very frustrating to male witches.) The term "witch" has no gender, but is mainly portrayed as female for Hollywood/media entertainment purposes.

Unless, of course, you're going by a "Harry Potter" book. Then "Wizard" is for males, and "Witch" is for female. But a children's novel isn't exactly the best source to turn to with these things. ;)

All witches, male and female are just that, witches. (not "warlock")

Contrary to the popularization of fiction and fantasy works, there is NO masculine word for witch.

The word "warlock", commonly used in fiction and fantasy works, is an extremely derogatory word, much like many racial and ethnic slurs used by the uneducated and/or bigoted peoples of the world.

The original meaning of the word "warlock" was "oath breaker" or "one who has broken their oath with God" It is from the middle ages and referred to anyone male or female, (it also is a non-gender specific word) who practiced any form of paganism. At the time the Catholic church was on a mission to eradicate paganism, and in their attempts they demonized the gods of paganism and claimed the practitioners had "made a pact with the devil", hence the "oath breaker" term.

As pagans in general did not then, nor do they now, follow the Catholic church, its beliefs, practices or rituals nor do they believe in the devil, or hell as a place of eternal torment and/or punishment, these accusations were (and still are) entirely false.
