Why is it masculine?
Crímenes is masculine in Spanish. It derives from Latin "crimen" (accusation, crime), which was a neuter noun in classical Latin. However, the explanation for why it became masculine in Spanish is problematic. Latin neuter nouns ending in -en did not typically shift to masculine due to -en endings; rather, many Latin neuter nouns were redistributed to masculine or feminine genders during Romance language evolution. In the case of "crimen," it became masculine in Spanish, but the specific mechanism of analogical pressure from other -en nouns is not well-established. The word is correctly identified and the gender is correct, but the etymological explanation oversimplifies the complex process of gender reassignment in Romance language development.
