Perché è masculine?
Cieux is masculine because it derives from the Latin "caelum," which was a neuter noun, but when it entered Old French it was reanalyzed as masculine—likely because the final "-um" was dropped and the resulting form resembled other masculine nouns of that period. This is an exception to typical gender patterns rather than following a consistent rule.
