could someone tell me if we can refer to a document with 他 I was wondering if we can refer to a document with 他? Or is it only for people? I hope someone knows.
Thank you in advance.
他 for a person, or more specifically, a male person
她 for a female person
牠 for an animal
它 for an inanimate object
祂 for a deity
A document is inanimate, so 它 is the appropriate pronoun to use. Having said that, it is not always necessary to translate the &quot;it&quot; in an English sentence. If you'd give us the context, we may be able to provide a better answer than a simple &quot;A in Chinese equals B in English&quot;.
