Perché è masculine?
Été (summer) is masculine in French. It derives from Latin "aestas" (feminine), but the gender shift occurred because the Latin word lost its final syllable during phonetic evolution in Old French. When "aestas" became "esté" and then "été", the word's form no longer clearly marked it as feminine, leading to reanalysis as masculine. This is an exception to typical gender patterns and does not follow a predictable rule.
