As a quick aside, “them” is an object pronoun, not a subject pronoun. The correct word you needed is “they”.
You couldn’t phrase your original question as a statement “Them have though.” That’s often a quick test for valid English grammar. With the correct pronoun, it makes more sense: “They have though.”
As another example, take this sentence: “Have you seen them though?”
“You” is the subject of that sentence, and “them” is the object.
- coldtea 1y agoThem is fine. It's short for "Have them [Node bozos improved it], though?" Or, equally likely it, refers to deno and bun ("deno and bun has really made Node focus and improve", "Have them (deno and bun) really made Node focus and improve, though?")
- joshuacc 1y agoYour expanded version is also incorrect.
- coldtea 1y agoIt's a common idiom used in slang and "urban" dialects for decades... (Also the expansion was meant as a joke in case it went woooosh - I don't mind-read to know what the OP meant)
- jfengel 1y agoThat is nonstandard English, at best. It's found in some uncommon dialects. Without the expansion I don't know of any native English speaker who would say it.
