Pourquoi est-ce feminine ?

Fontes is feminine in Portuguese because it derives from the Latin "fons, fontis" (fountain/spring), which was a third-declension noun. However, "fons" was actually masculine or neuter in Latin, not feminine. The feminine gender in Portuguese "fonte" developed through a semantic shift and analogy with other -e ending nouns that became feminine in Portuguese, particularly through the Romance language evolution where many third-declension Latin nouns adopted feminine gender.
