Pourquoi est-ce masculine ?

Habitat is masculine in French. It derives from Latin "habitatum" (neuter past participle of "habitare", meaning "to dwell"), which became a noun. In French, many Latin neuter nouns ending in "-um" were reanalyzed as masculine nouns, and "habitat" follows this pattern. The masculine gender is reinforced by the association with other French masculine nouns ending in "-at".
