Pourquoi est-ce masculine ?

Correio (mail/mailman) is masculine. The word derives from Latin "currere" (to run) or "cursus" (course/journey), which were masculine/neuter forms. In Portuguese, it evolved to refer to both the postal service and a postal worker (mailman). Portuguese inherited the masculine gender from its Latin roots, where words related to movement and occupations often carried masculine gender.
