• She doesn't like him.
• I saw her in town today.

After prepositions:

• She is waiting for me.
• Give it to him.

• I'll speak to them.

Object pronouns

• You can buy this book everywhere. = This book is on sale everywhere.
• You can't park here. = Parking is not allowed here.

We use they/them to talk about institutions and organisations:

• They serve good food here. (they = the restaurant)

especially the government and the authorities:

• They are going to increase taxes.

he, she and theyWe use he/him to refer to men, and she/her to refer to women. When we are not sure if we are talking about a man or a woman, we use they/them:
