Waarom is het mannelijk?

Furto is masculine because it derives from Latin "furtum," which was neuter in Latin. However, the claim that Latin neuter nouns ending in "-um" typically became masculine in Italian is incorrect. Latin neuter nouns ending in "-um" actually became masculine in Italian by adopting the masculine article and adjective agreement patterns, but this was not a phonetic evolution—it was a grammatical gender reassignment that occurred because Italian lost the neuter gender entirely. Neuter nouns were absorbed into the masculine gender class during the transition from Latin to Romance languages, which is why "furtum" → "furto" appears masculine in modern Italian.
