Is the word it feminine or masculine in french?

The word "it" in French is neuter.

French pronouns have gender, but "it" doesn't really have a gender. It's simply "il" or "elle" depending on the gender of the noun it refers to.

Here's an example:

* Le livre est sur la table. (The book is on the table.) - "livre" (book) is masculine, so we use "il"

* La chaise est cassée. (The chair is broken.) - "chaise" (chair) is feminine, so we use "elle"
