you’re way overthinking this. pronouns are about pronouns. it’s not that complicated. any/all means you don’t care what people say. he/him means you want masculine pronouns. he/they (he/them) means you prefer masculine but are fine with they.

just put whatever you prefer. no one cares what you are; people who look at these are only concerned with what you prefer to be called in third person. that’s it.

sounds like “any/all” is the way to go for you.

in most languages I’m familiar with there are two (masculine and feminine) and you can usually tell which ones are feminine because of the construction of the word. German has this to a degree with feminine words, but it’s not that consistent and the das/der distinction is, well, not even there. feels completely random to an outsider like me.

yeah, that’s why i said i was going to say the same thing, but the image itself is specifying the scope so I wanted to clarify.

i think it’s the other way though. you’ll understand a language better once you have the basics of grammar down. that’s the foundation. and you learn words as you go along. that’s why auto-translation between languages that aren’t grammatically similar is so tough. the software has all the words, but it’s not easy to figure out the grammar so they can’t always make sense of sentences (or worse, they can often get the opposite meaning).

disagree with your last point. you need to know the basic rules to use the words you know. but rules aren’t as numerous as all the words, so you usually get grammar out of the way and it’s all about vocabulary.

one thing about german though is that even vocabulary is more complicated because every noun comes with an article you need to memorize as well, in less intuitive ways than romance languages.

i was gonna say the same thing but to be fair the image itself is properly titled: this is a guide to nordic languages in their old world families.
