Por que é feminine?

Carnes is feminine in Portuguese because it derives from Latin "carnem" (accusative of "caro"), which belonged to the third declension. However, the gender assignment is not explained by a general pattern of third-declension Latin nouns becoming feminine in Romance languages—many third-declension Latin nouns had varied genders. Rather, "caro" was specifically a feminine noun in Latin, and Portuguese retained this feminine gender through the regular sound changes that transformed Latin into Portuguese (e.g., Latin -em > Portuguese -e). The feminine gender is preserved through direct inheritance from Latin, not through a declension-based pattern.
