Why is it masculine?
Relámpagos is masculine. While the word does contain the prefix "re-" and relates to light, the etymology connecting it to Latin "lampas" is uncertain. The masculine gender is better explained by the productive "-ago" suffix in Spanish, which typically produces masculine nouns (as seen in "trago", "lago", "pago"). The word's gender became established through this suffix pattern rather than through a single transparent etymological rule.
