Christ

Christ is a common noun referring to Jesus of Nazareth in Christian contexts, or more broadly to a messianic title. The term is used in religious, historical, and cultural discussions, and can also appear in phrases like “Christened” or “Christ’s Church.” In everyday speech, it often functions as a proper noun when referring to a person named Christ, though this is less common. The word carries strong cultural and religious associations and should be voiced with clear, concise consonants and a short, unstressed vowel.
