# --description--
|
|
|
|
When you want to learn about a person's character or personality without specifying their gender, you can use `they` as a singular pronoun and ask, `What are they like?`.
|
|
|
|
This is a respectful and inclusive way to ask about someone. Using `they` in this way ensures that you don't make assumptions about people. Example:
|
|
|
|
Imagine there is a new team member joining your programming project, but you haven't met them yet. Instead of assuming their gender, you can ask your supervisor, `What are they like?`
|
|
|
|
This question helps you find out about the new member's personality, such as being organized, creative, or detail-oriented.
|
|
|
|
**Note:** The question `What are they like?` can also refer to multiple people or a group. For example, if you're asking about a new team or a group of people you will be working with, you can use this question to learn about the group's personality or dynamic.

`What do they looks like?`
|
|
|
|
### --feedback--
|
|
|
|
`What do they looks like?` is incorrect; it mixes up the structure for asking about personality with the structure for asking about physical appearance and also uses a plural verb `looks` with a singular pronoun `they.`
