Por que é feminine?
Place is feminine in French because it derives from Latin *platea*, which was feminine, ultimately from Greek *plateia* (broad street); French retained the feminine gender of its Latin source word. This is a straightforward case of gender inheritance rather than following a productive morphological rule.
