The word for hand in Spanish comes from the Latin word 'manus,' which is itself feminine. The Romans, Latin speakers, colonized Spain for centuries. Why the word 'manus' is feminine in Latin is another question. Incidentally, the word for hand in Italian is also 'mano' and it's feminine as well.

In Spanish, "mano" (which means "hand") is considered feminine because it ends in the vowel "o." Nouns that end in "o" are typically masculine, but there are exceptions, and "mano" is one of them.
