I asked my Francophone buddy that grew up in backwoods Quebec how the hell he kept it all in his head. He said that he never bothered.

If it had an "e" on the end, he just assumed it was feminine.

If he was drunk, he didn't give a single flying tabernak.

It's likely the same as English spelling. Just years and years of repeated exposure, and you eventually pick up most of it through osmosis

How does anyone manage to keep allll the words pronunciation and spelling they know is already amazing, craming pronouns on top of that isn't much worse
