查了下,hit on: www.dictionary.com: US and Canadian slang to make sexual advances to (a person)
cambridge: slang to show someone in a direct way that you are attracted to him or her macmillan: MAINLY AMERICAN INFORMAL to try to start a conversation with someone because you are sexually attracted to them merriam-webster: to make especially sexual overtures to

macmillan 还给了个近义词:chat up:
to start a conversation with someone because you want to have a sexual or romantic relationship with them
When I left, Sally was getting chatted up by the barman.

从释义来看,好像还是chat up用在这里更合适。

to start a conversation with someone because you 。。。 with them, someone也能作集体名词复数?才知道。

make overtures to,晕,这个解释我也看不懂,查了下,好像可以用来翻译中文“做姿态”

1. Someone 是单数, 指代them, 是错误的。
2. Make overture to 是主动提出来的意思。

词典是人编的, 只要是人干的, 就会出错。
对于native speaker尤其是词典这种有一定权威的来源,下结论还是要小心些。又查了下:
However, "someone" is gender-neutral, and so when that "someone" is referred to by a personal pronoun, "they" (taking the plural form) is used instead of "he" or "she", because "they" is the most commonly used gender-neutral pronoun (https://english.stackexchange.com/questions/288760/someone-singular-or-plural)

Singular they enjoys a long history of usage in English and can be used here: "Each student should save their questions until the end." (https://english.stackexchange.com/q...al-singular-pronoun-his-vs-her-vs-their/55#55)

我理解上面那句里的them就是所谓的singular they。不匆忙下结论,小心求证总是没错的。
现在流行政治正确,估计类似的用法会越来越多

如果是这样, 我完全理解, 就像在口语中me 代替I.
