Why is it masculine?
Cacciaviti is masculine. While it derives from "caccia" (hunt/chase, from the verb "cacciare") combined with "vite" (screw, feminine), the compound word is treated as masculine in Italian. This is an example of a compound word whose gender does not follow predictably from its components—despite containing the feminine noun "vite," "cacciavite" is grammatically masculine and must be used with masculine articles and adjectives (il cacciavite, un cacciavite).
