Pourquoi est-ce feminine ?
Lumières is feminine because it derives from Latin "lumen" (neuter, meaning "light"), which belonged to the neuter second declension. In Old French, the accusative form "luminem" evolved into "lumière" through regular sound changes. Most Latin neuter nouns were reanalyzed as feminine in Old French, particularly those with the -a/-e ending that resulted from these phonetic changes, making "lumière" inherit feminine gender. This is a common pattern in Romance languages where Latin neuters became feminine.
