Question about English (US)
Which pronoun would make more sense here in your opinion?
👉 “I'm just a person who is trying to improve _________ English skills.”
1. Her? (because I'm a female?)
2. Their? (because the noun "person" isn't gender-specific?)
3. My? (because I'm indirectly talking about myself?)
