Perché è masculine?

Maíz is masculine. The word derives from Taíno "mahiz," an indigenous Caribbean language. When Spanish adopted this loanword, it took on masculine gender, likely due to the word's phonetic ending and Spanish conventions for integrating foreign nouns, though the exact mechanism of gender assignment for this particular loanword is not definitively documented.
