Sultan - Sultanae
Masculine nouns are typically changed to their feminine forms using recognised suffixes such as -ess, -ine, or by using an entirely different word.
The correct feminine form of "Sultan" is "Sultana," not "Sultanae," which is not a valid English word.
The other pairs are correctly formed: Duke becomes Duchess, Emperor becomes Empress, and Patron becomes Patroness, all following standard gender-change patterns.
Therefore, "Sultan - Sultanae" is the grammatically incorrect gender transformation.
