tip N°1 : spot the article.
masc. : un, le; (in 'le soleil', the article 'le' indicates that soleil [the sun] is a masculine noun)
fem. : une, la; (in 'la lune', 'la' indicates that 'lune' [moon] is a feminine noun)
tip N°2 : spot the adjective. An adjective tuned to the feminine often takes an additional 'e' at its end.
le ciel est bleu (the sky is blue) > masc.
la mer est bleue (the sea is blue) > fem.
