Pourquoi est-ce feminine ?
Gauches is an adjective meaning "left" or "awkward." In French, adjectives do not inherently have gender; rather, they agree with the gender of the noun they modify. "Gauche" is invariable in form in modern French, with both masculine and feminine uses sharing identical spelling and pronunciation. The word derives from Old French "gauche," which came from Frankish *walkaz (bent, crooked). The concept of "gauche" being feminine as a default is incorrect—adjectives in French agree with their noun, so "gauche" is masculine when modifying a masculine noun and feminine when modifying a feminine noun, despite identical spelling.
