Perché è masculine?

Taxi is masculine in Italian (il taxi) because it's a borrowed word from English that was adopted into Italian in the mid-20th century, and Italian typically assigns masculine gender to modern foreign loanwords that don't have a clear feminine ending. There's no Latin root since it's a contemporary borrowing rather than a word with classical origins.
