Perché è maschile?
Ongles is masculine because it derives from the Latin "unguis" (nail), which was a masculine noun. In French, Latin masculine nouns ending in -is (like unguis) typically dropped the final -is and developed into masculine nouns ending in -e, following regular phonetic sound changes from Latin to Old French. Thus "unguis" became "ongle," retaining its masculine gender from Latin.
