Question

Why is "encantada" incorrect if you're

a male greeting another male?
A. The person receiving the greeting is male, not female.
B. "Encantada" is informal, and they don't know each other.
C. The person giving the greeting is male, not female.

Answer 1

The answer is C.

This greeting is to say you are delighted to meet someone (roughly). It has nothing to do with the gender of the other person since it is the speaker who is describing their delight. So, you would say encantado if you’re a male no matter the gender of the other person.

Answer 2

A

Step-by-step explanation:

encantada is the person liking the noun /subject so it changes depending what the noun is, not who's doing it. Just as you wouldn't say el malets. It's correct as; la maleta.
