Perché è masculine?

Plafond is masculine. While it does derive from Old French "plafond," the etymology is more complex than stated. The word comes from Italian "plafone" (itself from Latin "planus" meaning "flat"), which entered French through architectural terminology. The masculine gender in French follows the pattern of many nouns ending in "-ond" or similar consonant endings, which tend to be masculine in French. The gender was preserved through the borrowing from Italian rather than being directly inherited from Latin morphological patterns.
