Why is it masculine?
Dado is masculine in Portuguese because it derives from Latin "datum" (neuter, meaning "given thing"), which became masculine through regular sound changes and analogical leveling in Romance languages, where neuter nouns typically merged into the masculine gender. The word's meaning shifted from the abstract "that which is given" to the concrete "die/dice," maintaining the masculine gender it acquired during this transition.
