[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just say Ms. Carlson. “Good morning, Ms. Carlson.” “Hi, Ms. Carson, I have a question.” If you are [b]talking about her[/b], you can say Ms. Carlson. “Ms. Carlson asked me to let you know we’re picking Billy up as a walker today.” “She” is an option that Ms. Carlson lists as a pronoun, so you may say “she.” But you don’t really need to use pronouns when you can simply use someone’s name. [/quote] You inadvertently undermined your whole argument by using a pronoun. The whole reason our language has pronouns is because constantly using a proper name is awkward and tedious. So it’s not a great answer to breezily dismiss this question with “oh, don’t use pronouns. Who needs them, anyway?”[/quote] Ms. Carlson literally said it was fine to call her she. It’s a choice given. Are you OK?[/quote]
