Perché è masculine?

Escaliers is masculine because it derives from the Latin "scalaria" (feminine), but when Old French adopted this word, it was reanalyzed as masculine, likely due to influence from the masculine suffix "-ier" which was productively used for nouns denoting objects and instruments. This gender shift reflects how Romance languages don't always preserve the grammatical gender of their Latin etymons.
