Turkish has no gender specific pronouns so this is every Turkish speaker I guess

Not even for people? I dont know why that sounds so strange but it does.

[–] lbfgs@programming.dev 16 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

There is only one third person singular pronoun ("O") used for people (regardless of gender) and objects alike.

Huh once again, hungarian is very similar to turkish. We have "ő" for that. No aninimity or gender distinction. Tho we do have this, that and a third one which i guess translates to yonder? But yeah in some constructions you can specify aninimity with them.

Also the word for "they" is "onlar" which is just "o" with the prular suffix "lar" attached, that's like using "its" to mean "them."

Neither does finnish

Yeah in common spoken language we call everything "it", except sometimes pets are "he/she", because people are signaling they're valued as persons are

Edit// we only have two third person pronouns, se (it) and hän (he/she)
