Perché è masculine?
Métro is masculine because it's a shortened form of "métropolitain," which functioned as a noun (le métropolitain = the metropolitan railway). When French shortens words, the shortened form typically retains the gender of the original word. The word derives from Latin "metropolitanus," from Greek "metropolitēs" (of the mother city), ultimately from "mētēr" (mother) and "polis" (city).
