German drink too much beer.       we can also say They drink too much beer.

ich I   du you   er he   sie she   es it   wir we   ihr you   sie they

You might have heard before that one of the crazy things in German language is that everything has a gender, even though it might be just a thing. They can be feminine, masculine or neutral. And then there is absolutely no logic in this issue. For instance is the German baby a neutral.

Das Kind schläft. = The baby sleeps Es schläft. = It sleeps.

But there are other weird combinations, too.

Der Tisch ist braun. (masculine) = The table is brown. Er ist braun. = He (It) is brown. Das Haus ist grün (neutrum) = The house is green. Es ist grün. = It is green. Die Tasse ist gelb. (feminine) = The cup is yellow Sie ist gelb. = She (it) is yellow.

Things only get easier in plural forms because there is no difference between the genders of the words.

Die Frauen lesen. = The women are reading. Sie lesen = They are reading. Die Männer lesen. = The men are reading. Sie lesen = They are reading. Die Babys lesen. = The babies are reading. Sie lesen = They are reading.
