彼女(かのじょ)たち

The female-plural third-person pronoun: 彼女(かのじょ) (she) + たち (pluralizer). Used when the group being referred to consists entirely of women or girls. If the group is mixed or its gender is unknown, the correct form is 彼(かれ)ら, which acts as the default "they."

Usage

Like most Japanese pronouns, 彼女(かのじょ)たち is used less often than "they" in English — Japanese prefers to drop the subject or repeat a noun when the referent is already clear. Use 彼女(かのじょ)たち when you need to explicitly mark "they (female)" to avoid ambiguity. In casual speech, あの子(こ)たち (those girls) is often preferred to talk about a female group.
