Why is it feminine?
Équipe is feminine. It derives from Old French "esquipe," which comes from the Scandinavian root "skip" (ship). The word originally referred to a ship's crew. The feminine gender is likely due to the influence of other feminine nautical and collective terms in French, though the exact mechanism of gender assignment in this case is not definitively documented. The meaning later generalized from "crew" to "team."
