Perché è masculine?
Cheval is masculine because it derives from Latin "caballus," which was grammatically masculine, and French inherited this gender assignment along with the word itself. The Latin term likely came from a non-Indo-European source, possibly related to Iberian languages, reflecting the horse's importance in Mediterranean trade and culture.
