Pourquoi est-ce masculine ?

Chocolate is masculine in Portuguese. While the etymology is correct—deriving from Nahuatl *xocolatl* via Spanish *chocolate*—the gender assignment cannot be clearly explained by a specific grammatical rule. The word was likely assigned masculine gender upon adoption from Spanish in the 16th-17th century, possibly due to analogy with other masculine nouns or simple convention among early users.
