Bob JonkmanWhat type of verb conjugation does the singular, genderless "they" have?
Eg. "They see a duck" or "They sees a duck" to replace "He sees a duck" ???
I mean, if "they" is singular, it should get the singular form of the verb, right?
silverwizard@bobjonkman I generally see people use singular they with plural verb conjugations - but ya know
Darcy Casselman@silverwizard @bobjonkman Language is weird. https://youtu.be/H3yURvn6J3s?si=j040Wb_zHBd59bQn
(In France, the plural pronoun "nous" (we) is being replaced with the singular pronoun "on" (one, more or less) in spoken French, with thid-person singular conjugations)

OTOH, it *is* #TLAP Day today. So maybe "Arr, they sees a duck, matey" is appropriate.
@bobjonkman Well yes
