Spivak pronoun
The Spivak pronouns 'e/em/eir' are a set of gender-neutral pronouns in English promoted on the virtual community LambdaMOO based on pronouns used in a book by American mathematician Michael Spivak. Though not in widespread use (according to the 2025 Gender Census, 8.3% of gender-diverse identifying people are happy to be called by some version of Spivak pronouns), they have been employed in writing for gender-neutral language by those who wish to avoid the standard terms he, she, or singular they.
