    Someone/he or she
    Message from maralife posted on 04-09-2014 at 11:11:49 (D | E | F)
    Hello,
    Whenever I am angry with someone, I can't forgive (HIM, HER or THAT PERSON).
    Could you please tell me which one is the right one? When we are actually talking about a girl, in particular.
    Thanks for your help.

    Hello

    The word someone doesn't indicate whether we speak of a man,a girl,or several people.
    That's why we have to use 'they/them/their'.
    Whenever I am angry with someone, I can't forgive them.
    We can also use 'him or her' all together.
    Whenever I am angry with someone, I can't forgive him or her.

    Hello,
    You could say:
    I can't forgive anybody I am angry with !
    But that doesn't answer your problem answered above though!
