Used to state the identity or status of a group of people.
문화적 배경
Using {他们|tāmen} is standard. In professional settings, adding titles after the noun is common. Usage is identical to the mainland, but traditional characters are used in writing: {他們|tāmen}{是|shì}. Cantonese speakers use {佢哋|keoi5 dei6} for 'they', but in Mandarin contexts, {他们|tāmen} is understood. Standard Mandarin is used in schools and media, making {他们|tāmen}{是|shì} the universal choice.
Context is key
Since {他们|tāmen}, {她们|tāmen}, and {它们|tāmen} sound the same, rely on the context of your conversation.
Don't forget {都|dōu}
Adding {都|dōu} makes your sentence sound much more natural when describing a group.
