    Complains about nonsense English, provides perfectly normal English sentence as an example. 🤔

        Do you not read much or something? I’ve been using both singular and plural “they” my whole life.

        I’m well aware, it’s still a perfectly normal English sentence. “They” has been used as a singular for decades, and the recent acceptance of it in formal writing has no bearing on if it is a proper English sentence.

        It would have been a proper sentence even 30 years ago.
