Pourquoi est-ce feminine ?
Figure is feminine in French because it derives from the Latin *figura*, which was feminine in gender, and French retained this grammatical gender through regular sound changes and morphological evolution from Latin to Old French and Modern French. The Latin *figura* itself likely came from the verb *fingere* (to shape or form), but the feminine gender assignment was a fixed feature of the noun rather than a productive rule.
