Pourquoi est-ce masculine ?

Spiriti is masculine because it derives from Latin "spiritus," which was a second-declension masculine noun meaning "breath" or "spirit," and Italian preserved this grammatical gender from its Romance language evolution. The Latin masculine ending -us naturally became the Italian masculine ending -o, maintaining the gender throughout the language's development.
