¿Por qué es feminine?

Penas is feminine in Portuguese because it derives from Latin "penna" (feather), which was a first-declension feminine noun in Latin, and Portuguese inherited this feminine gender along with the word. While "pena" primarily means "feather" or "pen," it also means "penalty," "sorrow," or "pity" in modern Portuguese. The original feminine gender persisted through these semantic developments.
