Hadar Shemesh breaks down three uses of they: plural (multiple people), singular when you don't know someone's gender, and singular for non-binary people. Jennifer Lopez is quoted referring to her gender-fluid child as an example of the third.
There are three cases in which we can use the pronoun they. The most common one is plural. They when we talk about two or more people or things. I spoke to my parents yesterday and they gave me such a hard time. The next one is singular. They when we talk about a person and we don't know if it's a male or a female, a new client contacted us and they want a special delivery. And lastly when we talk about a singular person who does not identify as male or female. This is how JLO referred to her gender fluid child at a concert not too long ago.
And I ask them to sing with me all the time but they won't. So this is a very special occasion. They're very very busy and booked and pricey it costs me when they come out but they're worth every single penny because they're my favorite duet partner of all time. How can I love when I.
