That.....frankly doesn't make sense, or it breaks the English language in ways that I'm not familiar with(admittedly it's not my first language).
Do you mean that instead of saying "it's her apple" you'd say "it's she apple"?
- thaumasiotes 4y ago> That.....frankly doesn't make sense, or it breaks the English language in ways that I'm not familiar with Correct; it is massively ungrammatical. > Do you mean that instead of saying "it's her apple" you'd say "it's she apple"? No possessive form is indicated. But instead of saying "I gave it a dress", you would say "I gave she a dress".
- gambiting 4y agoWell, thank you for explaining. I have complete respect for anyone's choices in this area but I'll leave the opinion on this particular choice to myself. Edit: looking at other comments, it seems like it might not be the correct explanation after all?
- tsimionescu 4y agoAs someone else noted, GP is just misunderstanding a frankly confusing subject. There are essentially two common ways for people to specify their pronouns. Some people desire a single set of pronouns, and indicate this using the nominative/accusative pair (she/her, they/them, ze/zer). Other people accept either of two different sets of pronouns, and indicate this preference using the two nominative forms separated by a slash (she/they, they/he, and apparently, it/she).
