"They is having a great time."
It does sound wrong for some uses of he/she.
- BRAlNlAC 8y agoDon’t force the verb form. “I’m worried about my kid at summer camp” “Don’t worry, I’m sure they are having a great time” Sounds very natural to my west coast ears.
- Rapzid 8y agoI believe it's typically only natural when the name/gender hasn't been established.
- kmm 8y ago"They're having a great time" The accord with the verb is still as if it's a plural pronoun. Just like with "you" which technically also used to be plural, doesn't take the old singular second person forms: "you have" not "you hast"
