Check my answer? Which pronoun agrees with the antecedent in the sentence? Today nobody brought __________ instrument. A. his B. his or her C. her D. their I pick D.

OpenStudy (inowalst):

D is correct.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

"Nobody" is singular, actually.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So, not D. You're left with the other 3 choices, and the key is to go with the most politically-correct one, so B is correct.

OpenStudy (jokersmart):

That was my second answer choice. Thanks again Lee! :D
