Why is it masculine?
Andén is masculine. While it is indeed a loanword from Arabic, the etymology provided is questionable. The word likely derives from Arabic "ad-dann" (the side/edge) or a related form, which entered Spanish during the medieval period. However, the gender of Spanish nouns cannot be reliably predicted from their etymology alone, as gender assignment in loanwords is often arbitrary or influenced by analogy with existing Spanish word patterns rather than the gender of the source word.
