Answer to Question 1

FALSE
Nondiscriminatory language refers to a person's skills and abilities and does not make
distinctions based on gender, race, culture, religion, age, or physical ability.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE
Gender-specific words indicate whether a subject is male or female. Such gender-bias words
show favoritism toward or imply a greater importance of one gender over another. Genderspecific words do not accurately reflect today's world and are not appropriate in today's
business communication. Instead, use gender-neutral words that do not indicate maleness or
femaleness.
