I’ve noticed that some Chinese keep mixing up the words for “he” and “she”. This seems very odd and makes me wonder if anyone else observed it too.

Chinese has only one word for "third person" (he/she/it) as do many other languages. That may cause some confusion for speakers of those languages when speaking like English.

English has only one word for "you." Some languages have two, or more. ("You" [everyone in the room] and "You" [just the one I'm talking to]).

"You" - singular.

"Y'all" - plural

While still young, I figured out “Y’all” has it’s distinct place, even though I’m not from the South. Seems silly to not have a plural “you”.

German speakers notice English speakers haver trouble with Der, Die, Das, A ship is Der, but a boat is Die? What's a wrench?

("You" [everyone in the room] and "You" [just the one I'm talking to]).

Vietnamese has exclusive or inclusive "we" i.e. we including you and we excluding you. There is no word for "you," If generic is intended then it is "friend." Otherwise it is the designation that corresponds to relative status.Actually, there are no pronouns in Vietnamese and probably not in some other languages.
