Pourquoi est-ce féminin ?
Mão is feminine because it derives from Latin "manus," which was feminine in the first declension (not second declension). This feminine grammatical gender was preserved in Portuguese as the language evolved from Vulgar Latin. The feminine form persisted despite the -ão ending typically indicating masculine nouns in modern Portuguese, making it a notable exception.
