Perché è feminine?

Televisão is feminine. While the word contains the suffix "-ão", which can mark both masculine and feminine nouns in Portuguese, "televisão" is feminine due to its etymology from Latin "visio" (vision, feminine). However, it's important to note that "-ão" is not reliably a feminine marker in modern Portuguese; many "-ão" nouns are masculine (e.g., "pão", "avião", "coração"). The feminine gender of "televisão" is better understood as inherited from its Latin feminine root rather than as a productive modern suffix rule.
