Pourquoi est-ce masculine ?
Cadeaux is masculine. While the etymology involving Latin "cadus" is plausible, the more direct and widely accepted origin is from Old French "cadeau," which derives from Latin "capitellum" (diminutive of "caput," meaning head), not from "cadus." The suffix "-eau" (from Latin "-ellum") is indeed a productive masculine-forming suffix in French. The word is masculine because it follows the standard gender pattern of French nouns ending in "-eau," which are typically masculine (e.g., "bureau," "tableau," "château").
