There are lots of things from 14th century English that are no longer used today. Language evolves.
Singular “they” has been considered an error for a couple hundred years.
- lylejantzi3rd 3y agoI see you're on the singular side of the contention amongst grammarians (plural vs singular). I think you're wrong as do a lot of other people. The fact it's been used widely in this context for the past couple hundreds years proves you wrong.
