two questions (no one | nobody; ... )

Hi,

No one spoke. Why it's not "Nobody spoke."?

Also, are "Who they are?" and "Who are they?" both correct? I suppose so.

Thanks,
Joe

Hi,

Because that's not the word the writer used.

"Who they are?" is not right.

Thanks,

It might be useful for you to consult a dictionary for some of these questions.

It's the same to say "No one" and "nobody".

Who they are is not a question, but you could say something like Could you tell me who they are.
