¿Por qué es feminine?

Andorinhas is feminine because it derives from Latin "hirundo" (feminine), which was the Latin word for swallow. However, the suffix "-inha" is not simply a diminutive here; it is part of the root word itself. The Portuguese "andorinha" comes from Latin "hirundinem" (accusative of "hirundo"), and the feminine gender is preserved from the original Latin feminine noun, not created by the addition of a suffix.
