Pourquoi est-ce masculine ?

Bairro is masculine. While it does derive from Arabic through Spanish influence, the etymology is more complex than stated. The word comes from Spanish "barrio," which derives from Arabic "barrī" (meaning "outer" or "exterior"). However, the claim that masculine gender was "preserved" through this etymological line is misleading—in Spanish, "barrio" is also masculine, and Portuguese adopted both the word and its gender from Spanish during the medieval period. The masculine gender is simply a lexical property of the word as borrowed into Portuguese, not necessarily because the gender was actively preserved from Arabic.
