Why is it masculine?

Stagiaire is masculine because it is derived from the French word "stage" (an apprenticeship or internship). The suffix "-aire" comes from the Latin "-arius," which typically produces masculine nouns in French. However, "stagiaire" can function as both masculine and feminine depending on the gender of the person being referred to (un stagiaire / une stagiaire), making it an epicene noun rather than inherently masculine.
