Why is it masculine?
Sintoma is masculine in Portuguese because it derives from Latin "symptoma," which itself comes from Greek "symptōma" (συμπτωμα), and this Greek-derived Latin noun belongs to the neuter second declension ending in "-ma," a pattern that Portuguese typically treats as masculine. This "-ma" ending convention (like "problema," "sistema," "drama") became standardized as masculine in Portuguese despite the original Greek neuter gender.
