Pourquoi est-ce masculine ?

Bebê is masculine in Portuguese. While it does derive from English "baby" and was adopted in the 20th century, the masculine gender assignment was not primarily influenced by the "-ê" ending pattern. Rather, "bebê" is masculine by convention as established in Portuguese usage, though the exact historical reason for this gender assignment is not definitively documented. It remains a modern loanword without Latin roots.
