Why is it feminine?

Falda is feminine because it derives from the Latin "falda" (or related to Germanic roots), and most Spanish nouns ending in "-a" are feminine by convention, a pattern inherited from Latin where first-declension nouns (typically ending in "-a") were grammatically feminine. The word itself has unclear ultimate origins but followed the established pattern of feminine gender assignment in Spanish.
