Pourquoi est-ce masculine ?

Espaces is masculine because it derives from Latin "spatium," which was a neuter noun, but French neuter nouns were redistributed between masculine and feminine genders during the language's evolution, with "spatium" becoming masculine. The shift likely occurred because the word's ending and phonetic evolution aligned it with other masculine noun patterns in Old French.
