Pourquoi est-ce masculine ?

Giovane is an adjective meaning "young" that can be used with all genders in modern Italian (un giovane uomo, una giovane donna). It derives from Latin "iuvenis" (young), and as an adjective, it does not have inherent gender but agrees with the noun it modifies. When used as a masculine noun (il giovane = "the young man"), it takes masculine form by agreement or substantivization, not because the adjective itself is inherently masculine.
