Pourquoi est-ce feminine ?

Palmeiras is feminine because it derives from Latin "palma" (palm tree), which was feminine in Latin. Portuguese inherited this grammatical gender and applies the productive -a ending that typically marks feminine nouns in Romance languages. The -eira suffix is a common Portuguese diminutive/agent suffix that preserves the feminine gender of its root word.
