Why is it masculine?
Nivel is masculine. While it does derive from Latin "libella" (meaning a spirit level or balance), the gender inheritance is more complex than stated. In Latin, "libella" is feminine, but Spanish "nivel" became masculine, likely due to the influence of the masculine suffix "-el" and analogical leveling with other Spanish masculine nouns ending in "-el". The word shows the typical pattern of Spanish masculine nouns with this ending (e.g., "papel", "hotel", "panel").
