English has both singular pronouns: He, She, Each, This;
and plural pronouns: They, All, These.
You can tell if a pronoun is singular or plural by looking at its verb:
He kicks the ball / They kick the ball;
Each man is an island / All women are volcanos;
This curdles if you leave it out overnight / These are sharp enough to cut your nose off.
The personal pronoun 'you' functions as both singular or plural.
The pronoun 'you' takes the place of a singular, plural , or a compound antecedent.
Examples:
Jack, I've made lunch for you. (singular)
Boys, I've made lunch for you. (plural)
Jack and Jill, I've made lunch for you. (plural)
The pronoun"you" also functions as both the subjective ("yousaw him") and objective ("he saw you") in a sentence.
A pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun.
Use a singular pronoun to take the place of a singular noun, a word for one person or thing; for example:

The personal pronoun 'you' functions as a singular or plural pronoun.
Examples:
Jack, you are such a good friend. (singular, subject of the sentence)
Boys, you are such good friends. (plural, subject of the sentence)
Jack and Jill, you are such good friends. (plural, subject of the sentence)
Jack, I've made lunch for you. (singular, object of the preposition)
Boys, I've made lunch for you. (plural, object of the preposition)
Jack and Jill, I've made lunch for you. (plural, object of the preposition)
It depends who you are referring to. If you are talking to one person it is singular. But to a group of people it is plural.
Pronoun-verb agreement requires a correct match between a pronoun and a verb based on number (singular or plural).A singular pronoun requires a verb for a singular subject.Example: She is expected at noon. (singular subject pronoun)A plural pronoun requires a verb for a plural subject.Example: They are expected at noon. (plural subject pronoun)
The plural of "she" is "they", so the plural of "she had" is "they had".
The pronoun 'we' is the plural form, first person subjective personal pronoun. The singular, first person subjective personal pronoun is 'I'.
No one is a pronoun and is singular.
The first person plural, subjective pronoun is we; the first person singular, subjective pronoun is I.

The form of a pronoun (e.g., "he" or "she" for singular, "they" for plural) typically indicates whether it is referring to one person or multiple people. Singular pronouns are used to represent one individual, while plural pronouns are used to represent more than one person.
When a singular pronoun is used to replace a plural noun or two or more nouns; or when a plural pronoun is used to replace a singular noun, its called a pronoun-antecedent error or pronoun reference error.
No one is a pronoun and is singular.
The number of a pronoun is singular or plural. A pronoun must agree with its antecedent in number. A singular antecedent requires a singular pronoun; a plural antecedent or a compound antecedent requires a plural pronoun.Examples:Jane is coming and she will bring the desert. (singular)Joe and Joan are coming and they will bring the beverages. (plural)Jim rides his bike to school. (singular)The boys on our block ride their bikes to school. (plural)The personal pronoun 'you' functions as both singular and plural: Jack, I've made lunch for you. (singular)Boys, I've made lunch for you. (plural)
The first person plural, subjective pronoun is we; the first person singular, subjective pronoun is I.
The indefinite pronoun nobody is a singular form. Example:Nobody was taking responsibility.
"Nothing" is typically considered a singular noun. It refers to the absence of anything, rather than a quantity of things.
