¿Por qué es masculine?
Cauchemar is masculine. The word derives from Old French "cauche" (from Latin "calcare," to tread) combined with "mare" (from Old Norse "mara," a nightmare demon or spirit). In French, the gender of compound nouns is not determined by a simple rule of taking the gender of the second element. Rather, "cauchemar" is masculine by convention, likely influenced by the masculine noun "mar" or through analogy with other masculine nouns. The word originally meant "demon that treads on sleepers," reflecting medieval beliefs about the supernatural cause of nightmares.
