Why is it masculine?

Exemplos is masculine because it derives from Latin "exemplum," which was a neuter noun, but Portuguese inherited it with masculine gender—a common shift where Latin neuter nouns became masculine in Romance languages. The word's grammatical gender followed the pattern of other Latin neuters ending in "-um" that transformed into masculine "-o" endings in Portuguese.
