Hi mate

Here is ur answer ⤵⤵

They is used to refer to the subject of a clause. In other words, it usually represents the ‘doers’ of the action described by the verb, and usually refers back to two or more people or things that were mentioned earlier.

For example,

  • The children were kind. They gave me a present.

  • Jan and Tom aren’t coming. They said they couldn’t make it.

Note that grammatical subjects aren’t always ‘doers’ of an action, but as a rule of thumb, the subject occurs at the beginning of a sentence, so this is the typical position of they.

For example,

  • Those cakes are delicious. They were made by my grandma.

They is sometimes used at the beginning of sentences to refer to people in general, or to refer to a group of people who are unknown or whose identity does not need to be stated.

For example,

  • They say that it will take several months to recover.

  • They’ve given Pablo another pay rise.

They is also sometimes used instead of the pronouns he or she to refer to an individual person whose he/she is not known or mentioned.

For example,

  • One of the teachers was supposed to be coming, but they were ill.

Hope it helps to u ⤴⤴
