Why is it feminine?
Tecnologia is feminine in Portuguese because it derives from Latin "-logia" (from Greek "logos"), a feminine suffix used for words denoting sciences or bodies of knowledge, which Portuguese inherited as a productive feminine-forming element. The Greek root "logos" itself was masculine, but the Latin feminine suffix "-logia" determined the gender of all compound words formed with it.
