I’m from Turkey so English isn’t my native language. We just call O in Turkish to no matter its he/she/it. Is there an equivalent of this generic term on English?
I don’t want to call he to a female or vice versa.
Hmmm interesting. Can/should I use a/an with this like
they are
a
bad person
? My English teacher would beat me for this lolThat’s also fine
I’d say you have to use a, no?
Yes
You use “an” when the word after sounds like it starts with a vowel. “They are a bad person” is correct, “They are aN awesome person” is correct.
English is dumb.
