Pronouns are some of the most useful words in the English language.
They are used in the place of a noun to avoid it having to be named twice.
Definition of Pronoun
In English, the part of speech used as a substitute for an antecedent noun that is clearly understood, and with which it agrees in person, number, and gender.
Pronouns are classified as personal (I, we, you, he, she, it, they)
Demonstrative (this, these, that, those), relative (who, which, that, as), indefinite (each, all, everyone, either, one, both, any, such, somebody), interrogative (who, which, what), reflexive (myself, herself)
Possessive (mine, yours, his, hers, theirs).
There are also pronominal adjectives, sometimes called possessive adjectives (my, your, his, her, our, their).
I have been seeing a bunch of unfamiliar pronouns lately and thought I should re-post this comprehensive guide so everyone can have a handy reference guide if needed.
People are stupid. That is all.
You forgot him/her = herm.
Will it and thing work for ya?
You forgot the gender neutral him/her = herm.
Few is being used fewer and fewer times because people are less thoughtful.
This is why every person(s) or non-person needs a Ph.D. in gender studies at the very least. Preferably a 50 year degree that will cost you upwards of 10 million dollars in loans.
No, the writer was only following the Good Grammatian’s Oath:
“First, do no ‘herm’,”
I let my relatives call me by my relative pronouns, “who, whom, and whose.”
For more formal occasions I demand to be addressed by the more stately and august “whosoever, whomsoever, whatsoever.”
If we’re drinking, that usually winds down to “whatever.”
It’s a pity Abbott and Costello died before they could work all this into a comedy routine.
Me is not there.....I am me.

All valid English Pronouns are listed.
“You all,” used in some parts of this country as a second person plural pronoun (never singular), could be added to that list.
I prefer the archaic pronouns myself…
il, lui, son
I might use the pronoun “cracker” and after they say it a few times, decide I don’t like it after all and get offended. (;
Whoever’s new pronouns are Whoever/Whatever.

I teach English to foreign students, so I knew this was about actual English pronouns and not woke B.S. I remember the light going on when I first learned about this. I like language and I like to know what functions words are performing. I try to pass that along to my students.
Just call everyone Comrade
Naw...ain’t gonna
