skullguise Posted June 7 Report Share Posted June 7 In this modern times of many pronouns, where I sometimes lose track of the conversation due to "them/they," I look back and think we should have taken Divine's pronoun to self-describe: Shim. She/Him..... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swt61 Posted June 7 Report Share Posted June 7 Honestly, if I know their name I just use that to simplify. Using a plural pronoun in place of a singular pronoun is still difficult for me. I hope it's obvious that I have no gender bias, it's just overcoming years of schooling. Although 'shim' would also be difficult for me, because that's what I use to install windows and doors. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grahame Posted June 7 Report Share Posted June 7 I'm reminded of my time when I worked in Germany. As a native English speaker, I wasn't used to languages with gendered articles (Der, Die, Das), So having to learn if a table, or Beer, was masculine or feminine seemed somewhat arbitrary, and didn't "stick". My workaround was to refer to things in the plural, when possible, so I only had to remember das. Problem solved. Personal pronouns, particularly "You" were problematic. My company paid for German lessons with Berlitz, where they taught me "proper" / formal German. The formal pronoun for "you" is "Sie", for both the singular and plural (think, hey you, hey you guys). Which lead to one of my German co-workers (with a sense of humo(u)r ) always looking around / behind himself for other people, whenever I referred to him using "Sie". He explained he was more used to the informal/ familiar form, which has singular and plural versions. To avoid confusion, he helpfully explained it to me, in English using the instruction "You can say 'you' to me". What? Or in German sie kannst „Du" zu mir sagen. You can use (the informal version of) "you" to say to me. Apparently the informal/familiar version is used when addressing friends, animals and small children. I wonder how gendered pronouns are handled now. Has the Academy Français made a ruling? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
