Por que é masculine?

The French noun "article" is masculine (un article). While French articles like "le" do derive from Latin demonstratives, the noun "article" itself comes from Latin "articulus" (a small joint, division, or part of speech). The gender assignment reflects Latin's grammatical gender system where "articulus" was masculine. French inherited this masculine gender when the word entered the language, but the gender is ultimately arbitrary and does not follow from the word's meaning.
