Editing They (section)

===Word of the year===
In December 2019, [[Merriam-Webster]] chose singular ''they'' as word of the year. The word was chosen because "English famously lacks a gender-neutral singular pronoun to correspond neatly with singular pronouns like everyone or someone, and as a consequence ''they'' has been used for this purpose for over 600 years."<ref>{{cite magazine |last=Locker |first=Melissa |title=Merriam Webster Names 'They' As Its Word of the Year for 2019 |magazine=[[Time (magazine)|Time]] |date=10 December 2019 |url= https://time.com/5746516/merriam-webster-word-of-the-year-2019/ |access-date=10 December 2019}}</ref>
