Why is it masculine?
Mundo is masculine in Portuguese because it derives from Latin "mundus," which was a masculine noun (second declension), and Portuguese inherited this grammatical gender along with the word itself. The Latin term originally meant "clean" or "orderly" before coming to mean "world," and masculine gender was simply the grammatical classification assigned to it in Latin.
