Why is it masculine?

Corvo (raven/crow) is masculine because it descends from Latin "corvus," which was grammatically masculine, and Italian retained the masculine gender along with the noun's evolution through sound changes (corvus > corvo). This gender assignment follows the typical pattern where Latin masculine -us nouns became masculine -o nouns in Italian.
