Why is it masculine?
Mármol is masculine because it derives from Latin "marmor," which was a neuter noun, but Spanish inherited it with masculine gender—a common pattern where Latin neuter nouns became masculine in Romance languages as the neuter gender system collapsed. The word ultimately traces to Greek "mármaros," referring to the white marble stone prized in classical antiquity.
