Why is it masculine?

Clienti can be masculine or feminine in Italian depending on the person being referred to. While it derives from Latin "cliens" (nominative singular), which was grammatically masculine, modern Italian treats "cliente" as a common gender noun that takes the masculine article "il" but can refer to people of any gender. The gender is determined by the biological sex of the person, not by a fixed grammatical assignment. The word originally referred to a person under the protection of a patron in Roman society.
