Not in Dutch they're not. ;)

(well, actually, it's "zij", but it's pronounced the way I assume "zie" 
is pronounced, and it's both feminine and plural nominative. Accusative 
feminine is "haar", and accusative plural is "hun", but most people just 
use the clitic "ze" for both nominative and accusative third person, 
singular or plural.)
