Perché è masculine?
Ail (garlic) is masculine in French. While it does derive from Latin "allium," the gender explanation oversimplifies the linguistic evolution. In Latin, "allium" was indeed masculine, but French gender retention from Latin is not mechanical—many Latin masculine nouns became feminine in French. The masculine gender of "ail" is better explained as a retention of the Latin masculine gender that happened to persist in French, though this is not a predictive rule for other Latin-derived words. The word is correctly identified as a masculine noun meaning garlic.
