A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A baronet is a non-noble hereditary title that can only be passed down through the male line. This title was created in 1611 by James I as a way to raise money.

Example: Sir John Smith is a baronet. His son will inherit the title when he passes away.

This example illustrates the definition of a baronet as a hereditary title that can only be passed down through the male line. Sir John Smith's son will inherit the title because he is his male heir.
