I had been searching off and on for quite some time for a non-gendered 3rd person pronoun that wasnt "it." I needed this for describing a certain aspect of self as well as when referring to some spiritual/reality states and guides.
Today, I came across "she'he" [pron: sheh'HEE] thanks to another who was speaking of a transvestite in this way.


Come to think of it, her/him statements would probably have to be something like "her'him" as well...


She looked out at the scene.
She'he looked out at the scene. perfect.


It was not all the same to him.
It was not all the same to ...she'him? ...her'im? ...her'he? unclear.


I was wondering, does anyone else have a way of describing the gender-free, the multi-gendered, and the other-gendered?

you could use Hungarian:

ő =he, she
őt =him, her (accusative, i saw him, etc)
neki = to him, to her (giving something)
érte = for him, for her
benne = in him/her
hozzá = to him/her (direction)
nála = by him/her (near by)
tőle = from him/her
róla = off of him/her
belőle = out of him/her
vele = with him/her

that's it for the ones that can be applied as pronouns (there are more cases than that, but they don't work as pronouns)

to simply of course, you could just use "őt" (pronounced ert) for "him/her" and "ő" (er) for he/she

Thanks for this one.

As well, our hosts used 'em' in reference to self, quite a lot, without wondering about it much more. One other of us wrote about 'her' as 'zie'. Might come handy.

ő is pronounced kind of like er, like the ir in bird, but if you speak german, it's much closer to the german ö, just pronounced longer. in that sentence the őt would probably be "neki" but it'd sound kinda dumb in English because English grammar works differently.
