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 is not a problem for native speakers though. These kinds of things are only something you think about if you are learning it as a second language later in life. If you grew up with them you just aborb the information and use it without thinking about it.
