Common, this is not the community contribution we need..
I really don't know. I did notice most have roots in english language "hir" or adding "x", but I can't find it in other languages.
If this is universal, I guess it should have some roots in other languages. I don't want to insult my friends and I'm not comfortable to ask, they might say that I'm "x-fob" for not knowing.

You can't tell me you post isn't bait. Google motherfcker they list neo-pronouns in other languages.
I can speak for German and say:
It doesn't work. It barely works in English, and some people already hate it there.
Basically all European languages and many more have Gender Cases. You would not only have to "invent" a pronouns, but also like 50 different endings and grammatical rules. You could just use one of the existing set endings I, but then the sentence sounds again just male, female or neutral, wich is the exact thing neo-pronouns don't want to do.
And btw., if your "friends" call you names for not knowing such things l, they are not your friends.
thanks
