Perché è feminine?

Citrouille is feminine because it derives from the Latin "citrulle," which comes from Greek "pepon." The word entered French through Italian influence, and the French feminine ending "-ouille" (a diminutive suffix) was applied to create "citrouille." This suffix naturally carries feminine gender in French, making the word grammatically feminine. The gender assignment reflects how French often assigns feminine gender to plant and food names, particularly those with diminutive or modified suffixes.
