Why is it masculine?
Lobo is masculine in Portuguese because it derives from Latin "lupus" (masculine), which retained its gender through regular sound changes during the evolution from Latin to Portuguese. The word's gender is determined by its Latin etymological source rather than following a phonetic rule, as Portuguese doesn't assign gender based on word endings alone.
