I misspoke a bit about individuals who use "they" pronouns. The pronouns for them would always be plural. The verb gets more complicated. If the subject is a plural pronoun, the verb would also be plural, but if the subject is a name, title, or phrase referencing an individual, the verb would be singular. So you can get a mix of singular verb and plural pronoun in those cases, which a grammar checker is not going to get right. The moral of the story, though, is that auto-grammar correctors will not be perfect, so don't trust them completely.

Grammar Girl and Grammar.com don't seem to allow you to type in a phrase to check on its grammar. Ex. The community is invited to share their thoughts... Is that the correct matching of singular/plural nouns with pronouns? Thank you? Charles. Charles Meyer Charlotte County Public Library Port Charlotte, FL
