Definition
French feminine form of entrepreneur; a female business founder or risk-taker.
Etymology
French entrepreneuse from entreprendre (to undertake) + -euse feminine suffix; specifically marks gender in French.
Kelly Says
English completely dropped the feminine -euse suffix when we borrowed entrepreneur, making the word technically gender-neutral—but studies show people still visualize male entrepreneurs first, showing how language shapes unconscious bias.
