Singular or plural

When it comes to indefinite pronouns, grammarians disagree about whether words such as everyone and somebody are singular or plural when you use a pronoun to refer to them. Several listeners have recently asked about this conundrum.

Is everyone and everybody singular or plural?

Are the words everyone and everybody singular or plural? Can I use a plural pronoun (such as their) to refer to these words? Grammarians actually agree that the words everyone and everybody are singular. Everyone sounds like a lot of people, but in grammar, everyone is a singular noun and takes a singular verb. For example:

1. Everyone loves me. (This is right because everyone is singular and paired with a singular verb, loves.)
2. Everyone are happy. (This is wrong because it's pairing the singular noun everyone with a plural verb, are.)
3. Everyone hates subject-verb agreement. (This is right because everyone and hates are both singular.)
4. no one
5. nobody
6. anyone
7. anybody
8. someone
9. somebody.
10. most
11. some
12. any
13. few
