(btw i am NOT trying to be disrespectful at all, sorry if thats the vibe) From square one: It's pronounced zee/ zeer It might be useful to keep in mind that xe = she, xir = her, xirs = hers (in terms of use, not gender) I don't know know anyone who uses the pronouns, and it takes some getting used to, but the sentence below is double purposed as it examples how to use the pronouns If xe's getting mad when someone messes up pronouns, talk to xir when xe is calm and just ask if xe can educate everyone so xe doesn't have to get mad.
