In Valdyan gendered third-person pronouns (first and second person
pronouns, nouns and adjectives have no gender) are only used if
someone's gender is important: _lye_ (F) or _lei_ (M), also dual
prefixed with i- and plural prefixed with a-.

Otherwise, it's _lea_ "he/she" for animates, and _li_ "it" for
inanimates.
