Why is it feminine?
Primavera is feminine in Portuguese because it derives from Latin "prīmāvēra" (literally "first green/spring"), which was already feminine in the source language. The feminine gender was inherited through the Latin first declension pattern, where -a ending words were typically feminine. In Portuguese, words ending in -a generally remain feminine, and this gender assignment was preserved as the language evolved from Latin.
