Pourquoi est-ce masculine ?
Chafariz (fountain) is masculine because it derives from the Arabic "šaḥārīz" (plural of "šaḥar," meaning water channels or fountains), and Arabic loanwords in Portuguese typically retained or were assigned masculine gender, particularly those ending in consonants like -z. This gender assignment reflects the medieval period when Portuguese borrowed heavily from Arabic during and after the Reconquista.
