Pourquoi est-ce masculine ?

Parco is masculine because it derives from Latin "parcus" (stingy, sparing), which was a first/second declension adjective with masculine forms ending in "-us" that became "-o" in Italian. However, the semantic connection between "stingy/sparing" and "park" is speculative. More likely, "parco" may derive from or be related to "parca" (enclosure) or directly from Late Latin sources meaning enclosed space. Regardless of the exact semantic evolution, the masculine gender is retained from Latin masculine adjective forms ending in "-us" which regularly became "-o" in Italian.
