Pourquoi est-ce masculine ?

Fratello is masculine because it derives from Latin "frater," which was grammatically masculine in the second declension, and this gender was preserved when Romance languages evolved from Latin. The word's ending in "-o" also signals masculine gender in modern Italian, following the regular pattern where Latin masculine nouns ending in "-er" became "-o" in Italian.
