Perché è masculine?
Caoutchouc is masculine in French. It derives from the Tupi word "cahuchu" (from indigenous South American languages), which was borrowed into French in the 18th century to describe rubber. The gender assignment appears to be arbitrary, as there is no productive grammatical rule that determines why this particular borrowed word became masculine rather than feminine. The masculine gender was established during the initial adoption of the word into French usage and has remained standard since then.
