| A third-person [[pronoun]] which was once inclusive (its character has the compound form of 人, or "person"), but its meaning was corrupted to mean "he" after the introduction of 她 (she, with the character for female: 女) and 它 (it). They all have the same pronunciation, which makes spoken Mandarin pronouns inclusive.

Though they all have the same pronunciation, it does not make Mandarin inclusive when written nowadays.

| A non-binary third-person [[pronoun]], added to the Unicode standard at code point U+323BF in 2025, but not yet rendered by most fonts (One font that does is [https://github.com/lxgw/LxgwWenKai-Lite/releases LxgwWenKai-Lite]). It is composed of “乂” (left) and “也” (right). Due to the technical difficulty of using it, the character has often been written “X也” in the past. (At the same time, a specifically male version – 𲰼, code point U+32C3C – was also added, composed of “男” (meaning “male”, left) and “也” (right). Both characters are listed in Unicode block “[https://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U323B0.pdf CJK Unified Ideographs Extension J]”.)
