Perché è feminine?

Massa is feminine in Portuguese because it derives from Latin "massa" (a lump or dough), which was feminine in Latin and retained that gender through the Romance languages. The feminine gender was preserved because Latin nouns ending in "-a" were typically feminine, and this pattern remained stable as Portuguese evolved.
