Why is it feminine?
Vacas is feminine in Portuguese because it derives from Latin "vacca" (cow), which was a feminine noun in Latin, and Portuguese retained this grammatical gender through sound changes that preserved the final -a ending typically associated with feminine nouns. The word's feminine gender is thus a direct inheritance from Latin rather than following a productive modern rule.
