The interesting thing is that the singular usage of &quot;they&quot; doesn&#x27;t get used with singular verbs. It seems that the syntactic pluralness of &quot;they&quot; is too strong for it to simply get thrown in place of &quot;he&quot; or &quot;she&quot; without changing the verbs.<p>I would say &quot;she is here&quot; or &quot;he is here,&quot; but not &quot;they is here.&quot;
