'They' is not a person, it is a group of people... And for your information, 'it' is not just an object, it's also a child/kid, so it's easier to extend the use of this pronoun instead of using a plural one, and make things hard to understand. @@stephaneboisjoli1320
End of what? You've been through so many ends including the end of injustice with women voting but apparently suddenly it's too much. Need to go back in time, evolving is too much for you.
@@user-tr9le5lt7zWell let me put it into context for you. They’re talking about the English language, and words used to adapt to certain situations. What they failed to mention is that while “they/them” are gender neutral They have a plurality to them. This doesn’t apply to people with split personality disorder. What we need to do as a society is stop conforming to nonsense and get these people the psychiatric help they need.
God, this is a stretch, going back centuries to justify their madness. If language hasn’t evolved so we use “they” naturally to talk about one person, it’s never going to, so forget it, Onslow.
@@Dx-Dm No, it hasn’t. Nobody would say: “Oh, you went to see them? How was they?” when you’re talking about a single person without causing confusion. It’s never going to happen.
Sorry in school I was taught they/them are plural pronouns. Until someone can explain a legitimate reason for a single entity to be called a plural pronoun.I choose to use the persons proper name and no pronouns to describe them. Maybe try inventing a new one.
They went over some of the history of those pronouns in the video. Did you not watch it, or are the only things you've ever learned the things you've learned in school?
Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer, end of 14c used all pronouns described here. Problem was however, it created a "them", therefore creating an "us", hence it went out of fashion and use. Politically it plays into the hands of dividing folk.
It is grammatically incorrect, and pronouns have a purpose and a specific function in a sentence. If you’re identifying as two separate people they have a name for that as well. It’s called split personality disorder.
Honestly, you should probably watch the video you're commenting on. Grammar changes and evolves over time, and those pronouns have been in use for hundreds of years.
Must every video only address serious problems or problems that you deem serious? That seems unreasonable. Furthermore, if it doesn't seem like a significant problem to you, I might suggest watching a different video.
Remember that instead of spreading negativity in the comments, you can simply not engage with the content, watch a different video. It makes the world just a bit less angry ❤
A computer is not an it, a computer is a computer try and tell a computer different try and tell me that a man is not a woman or a woman is not a man and I'll point out the differences quickly
They, a word which here means to refer to people in a general way or to a group of people who are not specified. Them, a word which here is a word used as object of a verb or preposition.
@UnkleBen I mean, I want to be kind/ be accepting of everyone. But when you want me to use the same word I use to say that a group of people just went to the park, I think you should go back to school. Use a noun or something else.
There are additional definitions that correspond to the video's use of the terms, but you seem to have omitted those. They have also been used for hundreds of years. Check the Oxford English Dictionary, or others.
They've been doing content like this for well over a decade. I'm not sure what you think TED talk is, but you might want to reevaluate your assumptions.
Why don't you use "It"? This is neutral.
Good point
It’s generally dehumanizing. Most people don’t even refer to animals as it in western culture at this point.
Just stay ur LGBTQ++++++ in the west. The rest of the world don't want any of those twisted value. Don't try to shove it tp others when others don't accept it.
Its much better
Because it’s generally used for objects and not people.
The pronoun “It” is gender neutral.
Yes, you're it. It is not a person. They is a person.

Beginning of the end….
Right? My respect to tedx fell 40% with this 😂

If respecting people is the end of things, then so be it.
I believe there is still time to take this down
I love how these people are capable of rewriting history so they can justify the stupidity they believe.
TF IS THAT THING
A they/them apparently
used to be called a "she-he" or a "he-she" depending on original equipment...
Did you know? It is a feature of literary style in Arabic that a person may refer to himself by the pronoun nahnu, ‘We’, for respect or glorification.

But it has caught on. It wasn't just used centuries ago. It was used in subsequent generations including this one.

As someone who uses all pronouns, yes, even IT, the comment section is truly strange TwT
Ted talk is at it too now ? 🤦🏻♂️
They have published pro-humanistic content for a very long time. You're at least a decade late to the party.
@@Dx-Dm Pro-humanistic content yeah I'm well aware. But directly promoting "non binarity" ?
@@Fatherthesnow speaking as a non-binary person, I do view such content as consistent with humanism.
Indeed there is a neutral pronoun. That's "it".
They always find minutia’s in history or simply alter history to fit their narrative, it’s part of the process.
Two birds on stage trying to force a weird change in common sense English.
What about WTF!!!
it's actually REALLY EASY!
All YOU do, is "allow" other "free" people define their reality the SAME way you've been allowed to do your whole life! 😂
No one cares.
I care.
I care when these attention seekers try to erode the English language to cater for their lunacy.
Well done. Now lets get back to reality and stop pandering to this nonsense.
Sorry in school I was taught they/them are plural pronouns. Until someone can explain a legitimate reason for a single entity to be called a plural pronoun.I choose to use the persons proper name and no pronouns to describe them. Maybe try inventing a new one.
"they" DID!!! you just cant accept things that confooose you 😢
They went over some of the history of those pronouns in the video. Did you not watch it, or are the only things you've ever learned the things you've learned in school?
I mean, look at the state of it. Its only path in life for any kind of validation was this, getting us to change to cater to its self-absorption.
Is there different groups for content on Tedx. Like tech, politics. So we can choose what to watch and cut of rest?
There are only 2 pronouns : He and She.
It is a pronoun used for dogs, cats and other animals and also non living objects.
ah, English Language major I see... smh. Dude what'd you get a c minus in English in 10th grade?! school... phhhht!
Your assertion would seem to be contradicted by the many people that use additional pronouns. Perhaps you were just stating wishful thinking?
Ok that’s enough, moving on we have more important things to focus on

You just listened to a video telling you the exact opposite. There's a name for that. Closed minded, and know it all.
Honestly, you should probably watch the video you're commenting on. Grammar changes and evolves over time, and those pronouns have been in use for hundreds of years.
here's how it was explained to me that made sense: "they" is fitting for a "he-she" because there's 2 pronouns in use.
Very interesting, while 70% of the population has serious problems, 30% is spending their energy in stupidities. Like in idiocracy, the movie.
Must every video only address serious problems or problems that you deem serious? That seems unreasonable. Furthermore, if it doesn't seem like a significant problem to you, I might suggest watching a different video.
Still trying to find the angle to justify the delusion.

Old English...is relevant to what group of people?

I am interested and I think that they will continue.
Looks like Rab C Nesbit with red hair
If it was used by weirdo's 700 years ago, why should I become a weirdo and use those words?
Perhaps you can do so as a personal growth activity to become less judgmental about others.

They, a word which here means to refer to people in a general way or to a group of people who are not specified.
Them, a word which here is a word used as object of a verb or preposition.
You have to take English 101 * to understand what you just said..."i" do, but "they" don't.
