Perché è masculine?

Castelos is masculine because it derives from Latin "castellum" (a small fort or fortified place), which was a neuter noun in Latin but followed the pattern of many Latin neuter nouns ending in "-um" that became masculine "-o" nouns in Portuguese. This gender assignment is largely a regular outcome of Latin-to-Romance language evolution rather than following a specific semantic rule.
