Why is it masculine?
Hilos is masculine because it descends from Latin "filum" (thread), which was a neuter noun, but underwent a gender shift to masculine in Spanish—a common pattern where Latin neuter nouns often became masculine in Romance languages as the neuter gender disappeared. The word's ending in "-o" also reinforced its masculine classification in Spanish's gender system.
