Question about English (US)
What does He/she leaved vs They leaved
I see Alot of times people use “they” to refer to one person when “they” word is supposed to refer to 2 or more persons, for example people using
- “they” leaved.
instead of
- she/he leaved.
to refer to just 1p mean?

They left
He/she left
(Leaved is not a word).
“They” can refer to one person, most commonly if someone’s gender is unknown. It is also used as a preferred pronoun by some non-binary or transgender people.

the past tense of “to leave” is “left”
he/she left
they left
and yes, sometimes we use “they” to refer to one person.
we do this if we don’t know exactly how many people there are, or just we don’t know who is being talked about. “they” is also a pronoun for people who identify as the non-binary gender.
