¿Por qué es masculine?
Pomeriggi is masculine because it derives from the Latin "post meridiem" (after midday), and when this phrase was contracted into a single word in Italian, it took the masculine gender of "meridiem" (from "meridies," a masculine noun meaning midday or south). The word essentially preserved the gender of its primary Latin component despite the semantic shift from a time-phrase to a concrete noun meaning "afternoon."
