Gender and Plural Usage Clause Samples

The Gender and Plural Usage clause clarifies how gendered and singular/plural terms should be interpreted throughout a contract. It typically states that words importing one gender include all genders, and words in the singular include the plural and vice versa. This ensures that the contract language is flexible and inclusive, preventing ambiguity or misinterpretation based on grammatical number or gender, and thereby promoting clarity and consistency in the document’s application.
