Why is it feminine?
Huella is feminine because it derives from the Latin "follis" (a bag or pouch), which became "huella" through sound changes in Spanish. While the etymology is correct, the feminine gender is actually predictable: Spanish words ending in "-a" are typically feminine, and this regular suffix pattern is the primary reason for "huella"'s feminine gender, not an exception to standard patterns.
