Pourquoi est-ce masculine ?

Limone is masculine because it derives from Arabic "līmūn," which was borrowed into Medieval Latin as "limō" (masculine), and Italian inherited this grammatical gender through regular sound changes. The masculine gender was preserved when the word evolved from Latin into the Romance languages.
