There are three sets of commonly used gender-neutral pronouns:
they, them, their, theirs, themself
sie, hir, hir, hirs, hirself
zie, zir, zir, zirs, zirself
| So instead of… | you may use… | which is pronounced… |
| he/she | sie zie |
“see” “zie” |
| him/her | hir zir |
“here” like “sir” with a “z” |
| his/hers | hirs zirs |
“here’s” like “sirs” with a “z” |
| himself/herself | hirself zirself |
“here-self” Like “sir-self” with a “z |
Note: It is often also acceptable to use the third person plural (they, them, their, themselves) instead of the third-person singular (he/she, his/hers, him/her, himself/herself) when referring to someone who has not expressed a clear pronoun choice.
