After having multiple conversations with parents about their non-binary children, I have to admit that constantly using they/them gets confusing as hell. This parent has multiple children and I frequently couldn't tell if they were referring to their children collectively, or to the non-binary child individually.
Potential solutions:
Wait, what is the difference in pronunciation for θeɪ vs ðeɪ?
The same difference between "ether" and "either", or "thistle" and "this'll". Voiceless θ, voiced ð.
Isn't it the difference between the 'th' sound in they(ð) and through(θ)?
or that and thatch.
Oh I LOVE the last one.
