Does it assume singular (him/her) or does it select the appropriate (wasn't/weren't) if Dave identifies as (they/them)?

Way way back in the day I programmed a Mad Libs sort of game and it linguistically kicked my ass. Learned a ton about natural language and peculiarities of English from that - it's a good exercise if you've never tried it (I mean, clearly _you_ have but not everyone has. Grammar is complex; QED I guess.)
