Usage notes
[edit]

The gender of this Portuguese zoonym is always feminine: when the gender of the being itself must be specified, use “cobra-macho” for male, and “cobra-fêmea” for female. Here,macho is treated as an undeclinable noun and doesn't necessarily need to agree in gender with the referent, but would change tomacha if so.

  • Some biologists proscribe the use ofcobra for all snakes, restricting its use to the familyElapidae as in English.
