§Grammar and usage
Usage: themself refers to one person, but many people consider it non-standard, and themselves is more common even with a singular meaning.
Usage में themself एक ही व्यक्ति के लिए आता है, पर बहुत से लोग इसे मानक नहीं मानते, और एकवचन अर्थ में भी themselves अधिक प्रचलित है।
In formal and exam English, prefer himself or herself, or rewrite the sentence in the plural, as in 'All candidates must check the form themselves'.
Formal और परीक्षा की English में himself या herself को प्राथमिकता दें, या वाक्य को plural में बदल दें, जैसे 'All candidates must check the form themselves'।
