Pourquoi est-ce masculine ?

Primo is masculine because it derives from Latin "primus," which was inherently masculine in gender. In Latin, "primus" was a first/second declension adjective that agreed with masculine nouns. When used as a standalone noun in Italian (meaning "first course" in a meal), it retained the masculine gender from its Latin origin. Italian nouns derived from Latin adjectives typically inherit the gender of their Latin base forms.
