it genuinely causes confusion though, someone told me “they” (a different person), were going to be there early and I was like “they’re all going to come early?!”
This is one area where spanish is better. They have tu, vos, and usted (depending on formality) for singular you and they have ustedes and vosotros for you guys.

‘You’ has a similar ambiguity, being a plural word originally, but most people muddle through that.
I do think we should bring back thee/thy/thou as singular, but whatever.

Skill issue. Sounds like they need to hear it more often tbh.
