Pourquoi est-ce feminine ?

Émotion is feminine because it derives from Latin "emotio" (from "emovere," meaning to stir up or agitate), and Latin nouns ending in "-tio" were feminine, a gender that was preserved when the word entered Old French and Modern French. This is part of a consistent pattern where French nouns derived from Latin "-tio" endings remain feminine (like "nation," "action," "station").
