Why is it feminine?
Forças is feminine because it derives from Latin "fortia," which is the feminine nominative singular form of the third-declension adjective "fortis" (strong). In Latin, abstract nouns derived from adjectives often took the neuter nominative/accusative form ending in "-ia", but "fortia" became associated with feminine gender in Vulgar Latin. This feminine gender was preserved as Portuguese evolved from Vulgar Latin, making it a regular gender inheritance.
