@Bregowald
I would agree with you that is construction is only normally used when speaking
but that goes with it's informal nature.

and while we are at it
What about the royal we?

@iswearenglish I've read most of most of those authors, and they used it only in dialogue. They used other illitericisms in dialogue as well, like double negatives etc.

maybe such writers as Addison, Austen, Chesterfield, Fielding, Ruskin, Scott, and Shakespeare sound stupid when they use it as well.

'They' instead of 'he' is substandard English and sounds stupid. Just say 'he' - it's gender neutral. No reason to say 'he or shy' or 'they'.

@dobriyranok
no we do not add the s
we are using the 3rd person plural in substitution for
3rd person singular of indeterminate sex
Somebody is here to see you. They are standing in the hall.

So, when we use "they" as a plural instead of "he" or "she", we don't add an "s" in the simple present? - Somebody on the phone, they want you (not -they wants you)? I just think that adding an "s" could make it clear that it's one person when we use "they" in this situation.
