Tina: You’re looking for the adjective form, right? The closest I can get is by rearranging the phrase to use it as a noun, then using a noun synonym. Like, “hello writers and colleagues” implies the speaker is also a writer the same way “fellow writers” does.

HEY HELP you know how you say "My fellow Americans" or "My fellow writers" is there a not-gendered word I can use there? I realize that it's supposedly gender neutral but I wish for a gender inclusive choice. did anyone ever coin something?

I think I have to find a way to rephrase, honestly, but I did wonder if it had ever come up and there was already an answer

It’s a cool puzzle (for me, as I am not writing a speech), and also it seems very odd to find a word with literally no synonyms
