Why is it feminine?
Isole is feminine because it derives from Latin "insula," which was feminine in gender, and Italian retained this grammatical gender through regular sound changes (Latin -a endings typically became feminine -a in Italian). The word's femininity is thus a direct inheritance from Latin rather than following a broader pattern, though -a endings in Italian are generally feminine.
