Why is it feminine?
Farines is feminine because it derives from Latin "farina," which was feminine in gender, and French retained this grammatical gender through regular sound changes (the -a ending typically indicates feminine nouns in Romance languages). The Latin word itself likely comes from "far" (grain/spelt), and the feminine form was the standard noun used for "flour" in the language that became French.
