Why is it masculine?

Almuerzos (lunch) is masculine because it derives from the Latin phrase "ad morsum" (meaning "a bite" or "a meal"), which evolved through Old Spanish as a masculine noun and retained that grammatical gender through semantic shift and linguistic evolution. Like many Spanish nouns, its gender is ultimately conventional rather than rule-based, though the Latin masculine origins likely contributed to its masculine form in modern Spanish.
