Why is it feminine?
Pertes is feminine because it derives from the Latin "perdita" (feminine past participle of "perdere," to lose). The suffix "-te" in French often comes from Latin feminine endings, and "perte" retained the feminine gender from its Latin source. Additionally, in Modern French, most nouns ending in "-te" are feminine, making this a reliable pattern for predicting gender.
