Why is it masculine?
Radis (radish) is masculine in French. While it does derive from Latin "radix" (root), the gender assignment in French is not easily explained by a simple rule. The word follows the pattern of many French nouns ending in -is that are masculine (such as "paris", "ibis", "chassis"), but this is more of a pattern observation than a generative rule. The masculine gender does not have a clear phonetic or morphological trigger that would reliably predict it.
