Some words with the Latin root "sex" include "sexual," "sexuality," and "unisexual." The root "sex" in Latin originally meant "six," but it later evolved to refer to the classification of organisms based on reproductive functions. In modern English, words with this root often pertain to gender, reproduction, or sexual characteristics.
Its origin is the Latin word "mas" (gen. maris) which means "male, of the male sex." From that word came "maritus" (husband, lover) which replaced other Latin words for husband, like "coniunx" (husband or wife, one who is joined, yoked together) and hence the verb "maritare" (to marry, to give in marriage.)
The root word "male" relates to characteristics traditionally associated with men or the male sex, such as masculinity, strength, or maleness.
The Greek root 'hetero' means different. Hence heterosexual refering to the love between two members of the opposite sex.

To determine if a noun is masculine or feminine in Spanish, you usually check its final letter. Feminine nouns end in 'a,'while masculine nouns end in 'o.' However, there are some masculine nouns of primarily Greek origin which end in 'a,'e.g., el tema, el idioma
