Perché è feminine?

Cunha is feminine because it derives from Latin "cuneus" (wedge, masculine second declension). In Portuguese, the word underwent sound changes (Latin -eus > -a) and was reanalyzed as feminine based on the productive feminine -a ending in Romance languages. The feminine gender assignment was reinforced by analogy with other Portuguese nouns ending in -a, making it a regular feminine noun despite its masculine Latin origin.
