noun, masculine/tʁi.by/plural: tributs
tribut is masculine in French.
tribute (payment made from one state to another as a sign of submission); tribute (acknowledgement of gratitude)
From Middle French tribut (15th c.), learned alteration of Old French treü (12th c.), itself either inherited or early borrowed from Latin tribūtus. Forms such as trebu (14th c.) show that the relatinization was a gradual process.
