Understanding the words he 他, she 她, and it 牠 or 它 in Chinese - a podcast by Fun Learning Chinese

Understanding the Chinese pronouns that are translated to he, she, or it requires knowing a couple of things. First of all, the pronouns that mean he, she, or it in Chinese all sound the same, but have different characters.

他 ㄊㄚ (tā)  “he”

她 ㄊㄚ (tā)  “she”

牠 ㄊㄚ (tā)  “it”

它 ㄊㄚ (tā)  “it”

There are two different characters meaning it, because there is one for animals and one for inanimate objects.
