¿Por qué es feminine?

Nuca (nape of the neck) is feminine in Portuguese. While it does derive from Latin "nucha," the Arabic origin and the claim that it retained feminine gender through borrowing is speculative and not well-established in standard etymological sources. The feminine gender is better explained by the Latin feminine form "nucha" (-a ending typically marks feminine nouns in Portuguese and Romance languages), which Portuguese inherited directly.
