Document Summary
Without making the confusion of sticking singular and plural together-> it often works to change the singular into plural, so they can be used properly. * don"t use (cid:498)they(cid:499) as singular when writing formally. When you know the gender of the person you"re talking about, use he or she. You can use he/she said something or s/he -> but this can be awkward so don"t. Something people did that was very confusing-> (cid:498)drayton writes their lines(cid:499) )f you are saying a word like (cid:498)someone(cid:499) and nobody knows who the someone is, (cid:498)(ere are my poems and this is why she didn"t love me(cid:499) The poems are depending on an identification of the poet with the speaker. Ex) each student ate his lunch, each student ate their lunch, all the students ate their lunch they is acceptable. Faustus is mad because he is supposed to be getting whatever he wants from metastophalies. Faustus is talking about the heavens and astronomy.
