Why is it feminine?
Cabeceiras is feminine because it derives from Latin "caput" (head) through the suffix "-eira," which is a productive feminine-forming suffix in Portuguese. The word originally referred to the head of a bed or the area near the head, and the "-eira" suffix, typically used for locations, instruments, or objects associated with a noun, carries feminine gender in Portuguese. This feminine gender has been maintained in modern Portuguese where "cabeceira" means "headboard" or "bedside table."
