Let’s say I have a welder that looks like a dude. And I want “him” to
do a particular task. Would I say to a supervisor “they need to do

not work. (This is not totally academic, I did have a welder...)
Probably should not say have s/he do the task. How do you pronounce
that. shuh hee

How do you use this in speech? They and them are plural in my mind.
