Why is it masculine?
Discorso is masculine because it derives from Latin "discursus" (past participle of "discurrere," meaning "to run about" or "to discourse"), which is a masculine noun in Latin, and Italian retained this grammatical gender from its Romance language evolution. The Latin masculine ending -us typically became masculine -o in Italian, preserving the original gender classification.
