Perché è feminine?

Lèvre (lip) is feminine because it derives from Latin "labra," which is the plural form of "labrum." In Latin, "labrum" (lip) was masculine, but "labra" (lips) was reanalyzed as a feminine singular noun in Vulgar Latin due to its -a ending, which is typical of first declension feminine nouns. This reanalysis carried the feminine gender into Old French and modern French.
