Perché è feminine?

Goiabas is feminine because it derives from Tupi "guiaba," and when Portuguese borrowed this indigenous word, it was treated as a feminine noun, likely influenced by the feminine ending "-a" that became associated with it during adoption into Portuguese phonological patterns. The gender assignment of loanwords often follows the phonological conventions of the receiving language, where "-a" endings typically signal feminine nouns.
