Why is it masculine?
Problema is masculine in Portuguese because it derives from Latin "problema," which came from Greek "próblēma" (προβλήμα). In Portuguese, many -ma nouns borrowed from Greek through Latin retained or adopted masculine gender, including "problema," "sistema," "tema," and "programa." This represents a productive pattern in Portuguese where Greek-origin -ma words are typically masculine, even though Latin neuter nouns generally became feminine in Romance languages.
