A Gourmet Guide to Typesetting with the AMS-TeX Macro Package The quotes are from the 2nd edition (2004 reprint), the original was published in 1982 2004 Just as ‘I’ is the first person singular pronoun, regardless of gender, so ‘E’ will be used in this book as the third person singular pronoun for both genders. Thus, ‘E’ is the singular of ‘they’. Accordingly, ‘Eir’ (pronounced to rhyme with ‘their’) will be the possessive, and ‘Em’ (rhyming with ‘them’) will stand for either ‘him’ or ‘her’. Here is an example that illustrates all three forms: E loves Em only for Eir body. (p. xv)@If a book designer wanted to use underlining extensively, E would have to design a special ‘\ul’ font in which each letter has an underline as part of it; of course, the letters g, j, p, q and y would be one of Eir design problems. (p. 18)@If the author uses such notation, it should be up to Em to indicate Eir intentions clearly, but there’s no harm checking first. (p. 63) 1) Note the capitalization of the pronoun. 2) Spivak doesn't provide a reflexive form. 01EP5KZNBCCAD2024012HFMCR3 womanOn Book Marge ^Piercy Woman on the Edge of Time 1976 I’ve read of this and seen a drama too about a person who sold per body to feed per family!@Barbarossa dyes per beard, in truth.
