Why is it masculine?
Savoirs is masculine. While it does derive from Latin "sapere" (to know), the gender explanation is problematic because "savoir" is primarily used as a verb in French, not a noun meaning "knowledge." When used as a noun (le savoir = knowledge/learning), it is masculine, but this is because French verbal infinitives used as nouns typically take masculine gender. The rule conflates Latin neuter noun endings with verb infinitives, which are different categories. A more accurate explanation: "Savoir" is masculine when used as a noun because French infinitives functioning as nouns conventionally take masculine gender.
