A set of third-person pronouns a person goes by, in the five English forms (subject, object, possessive determiner, possessive pronoun, reflexive). Sex/gender INDEPENDENT and contextual. A known set is one of the gmeow:PronounSet value individuals; any other set is expressed by filling the five form properties on a fresh PronounSet instance.

Usage Advice
Use when
- Use to record the third-person pronouns a person goes by — reference a seeded set (
gmeow:pronounSheHer,gmeow:pronounTheyThem, …) for a known paradigm, or mint a fresh instance filling the five forms for any other set.
Avoid when
- Avoid inferring a pronoun set from, or asserting one to imply, gender identity, gender expression, sex assigned at birth, or orientation — address is not identity; and avoid leaving a custom set short of its five forms unless it is a non-specifying stance (any / ask / name-only).
How to use
- Attach the set to a person with
gmeow:hasPronounSet; for a custom set fillgmeow:pronounSubject,gmeow:pronounObject,gmeow:pronounPossessiveDeterminer,gmeow:pronounPossessive, andgmeow:pronounReflexive; scope a context-specific set with gmeow:validFrom/validUntil on the statement.
