It is a fantastical evolution of THEY when used for an epicene singular third person.
AY AYS, following the simple model of IT (forget Stephen King).
I do know the person who killed your cat. Ay should be imprisioned. Ays name will carry a shame for centuries.
(Why not EY EYS?)
I say: actual epicene they is not totally neutral, it is only a summarily She or He = They.
The interesting feature of this They is that it follows the model of YOU

Blua_Monto:Time to demolish all the irregular verbs.Someone is brave enough to present and test all the regular verbs? Are some of them troublemakers?
goed, builded, sleeped…
Too bad, this will let some synonyms arise, like "seed".

More scientific is to explore the use of concrete regular forms in Internet.

I suppose that they are naive proposals, that they need some more creative thinking.
Exaggerate = cause to appear larger
Inaggerate = cause to appear smaller
toomuchise vs toolittlise.
Overblow, underblow.
explain: to make clear
implain: to make unclear
extravagant: extreme, unreasonable
introvagant: moderate, reasonable / innerly perverse or odd.
extreme vs intreme.
exist vs inist (quantical theory)
exercise (work out) vs inercise (resting/theorising/visualisation).
" When you watch a karate film, you inercise karate.
Really important concept: INAGGERATE (mitigate, dissimulate, banalise).
Enemy's casualties are exaggerated and our own casualties are inaggerated, systematically, for God's sake.
What about the Esperanto translations?
maltroigi, malklarigi, malekstrema, malekzisti, ktp.

amigueo:My question: "They" in English is not only epicene, it is collaterally indistinct about number (singular or plural), analogously to YOU. Could you use it as a mark of politeness?
I say: actual epicene they is not totally neutral, it is only a summarily She or He = They.
The interesting feature of this They is that it follows the model of YOU
The queen has called to excuse "Theirselves" for "Their" inappropriate words.
("They" is a respectful you-style pronoun for, in this case, the queen.)
They has no tea. That is the epicene use of "they".
They (a single person) have no tea. That is the respectful plural.

Noto manskribita sur la fridujo por si aux por kunulo, estas sivo.
Lasi pluvombrelon apudporde por ne forgesi gxin am eli, estas sivo.
