Q. How do you state your pronouns?
In English, when declaring one’s preferred pronouns, a person will often state the subject, object, and possessive pronouns—for example, “she, her, hers”, “he, him, his”, or “they, them, theirs”—although sometimes, only the subject and object pronouns are stated (“he, him”, “she, her”, “they, them”).
Q. How do you ask someone for their pronouns?
Try asking: “What is your preferred pronoun?” or “Which pronouns do you prefer that people use for you?” or “Can you remind me which pronouns you use for yourself?” It can feel awkward at first, but asking for a preferred pronoun can avoid hurtful assumptions.
