Ciúmes (jealousy) is masculine in Portuguese. While the word does derive from Latin sources related to jealousy/zeal, the etymological connection to "zelus" is indirect. The word likely comes from Latin "zelotypia" or similar forms influenced by "zelus." Portuguese inherited the masculine gender, which is typical for many -e ending nouns in Portuguese, particularly those derived from Latin neuter or masculine forms.
