tā men
[tah-men]
💬 Usage Tip: [他們] means 'they/them.' In speech, the pronouns [他], [她], and [它] all sound the same (tah), even though the written characters differ.
🇹🇼 In Taiwan: This is a fun writing-versus-speaking point for learners: spoken Mandarin does not distinguish 'he/she/it' in pronunciation here.
