>you (formal)
>you (informal)
>cot
>caught
not everyone says them the same
then why do other languages have distinctive second person plural?
its not like they are idiots is it?
To be fair, there was ye but people stopped using it.
And now people say you guys or y'all to make up for the loss of ye.
tu
você
>(you)
>You!!!!!!
das rite man
>knight, night

>tu (singular)
>vous (plural or polite singular)
French, why? This was so nearly a useful distinction.
it's true tho
english used to had the pronoun "thu" as a singular
and "you" as a plural
eventually people started to "you" everyone
>tú
>usted
>ustedes
Feels good mang
But bud is pronounced differently.
alright so plz clear this up
usted is the singular you and ustedes is the plural right?
and in spain they use tu and vosotros
right?
any idea how this split came to be?
je / jij / jou / u / jullie
You forgot Vosotros.
they don't use vosotros outside Spain, only ustedes. vosotros in spain is informal, while ustedes is formal, no distinction is made outside spain

>using a plural noun for a singular object to show reverence
why do this
Tú - singular informal
Usted - singular formal
Vosotros - plural informal (only spen uses it)
Ustedes -plural formal (also informal here)
we don't have to answer this
>ihr (informal plural 2nd person)
>Ihr (archaic formal singular AND plural 2nd person)
je (indirect, informal)
jij (accusative, informal)
jou (accusative, informal)
jullie (plural, informal)
u (formal, singular and plural)
People have a strong preference for je.
>tu
What?
bydlo here say "yous"
I think that's a blessing, it gets rid of the "we're familiar enough to talk in singular" bullshit, and "you should talk to me in plural out of respect" crap.
English used to have this.
"thou" was the informal singular, but it became to be seen as rude, so everyone used the formal and plural "you".
So dialects invented new plurals to fill the gap that was created:
y'all
yinz
yous
you guys
Estonian has a singular informal, and the plural is used as a singular formal. There are also long and short forms:
sina - singular-informal, long
sa - singular-informal, short
teie - singular-formal, long; plural, long
te - singular-formal, short; plural, short
Each of these inflect for 14 cases, although the short forms are partially defective.
"with you" (the comitative case) can be "sinuga" or "suga", but "without you" (the abessive case) is always "sinuta".
>on - 3rd person number and gender indefinite
>on - 2nd person plural informal
I apologise
russian:
> you (singular informal)
> you (sing formal, plural informal, plural formal - these sound and look the same)
german:
> you (sing informal)
> you (plur informal)
> you (sing formal, plural formal and the fucking pronoun "they" (except it's not capitalazied) are the same)
>>you (singular)
>>you (plural)
>they (plural)
>they (singular)
>(((they))) (((plural)(indefinite))(jewish))(*lisp(joke))
>you (sing informal)
> you (plur informal)
> you (sing formal, plural formal and the fucking pronoun "they" (except it's not capitalazied) are the same)
literally false in every way, what the fuck are you talking about
>a
>an
>the
German
>hey Hans let's separate verb and put half of it in the end of the sentence
>du
>ihr
>Sie, sie
What?
i meant that every "> you" is a different type of "you" but didn't want to bring up german/russian words
why am i that retarded
the 'ye' you would see on bars like 'ye olde tavern' is actually 'the'. because the 'y' in 'ye' is not actually a 'y' but a letter that is pronounced as 'th' similar to the phonetic symbol of 'th'. over time people just pronounced it as 'y' because it looks like a 'y'.
>die(animals except bees)
>die(for humans,bees and everything else)
why bees?
Our ancestors worshipped them
>tfw having ti and ju, and cant decide what should you give.
>*lbanians
Illyrians?
Balkanic people in general actually. Its an animal you cannot eat, yet it provides food for you, so I can see why people then worshipped bees
어
어요
입니다
나
내
나의
저
제
저의
>sono (I am)
>sono (they are)
No you retard, ye is an actual word. The y in ye olde tavern is because th used to be written using þ, but since y and þ look similar in medieval font, people mistakenly used them for each other, and when þ fell out of use the y in ye olde tavern just stuck.
>yet it provides food for you
No it doesn't, you just steal its food. I guess that's considered normal in albania though.
>Honey bees collect pollen and nectar as food for the entire colony, and as they do, they pollinate plants. Nectar stored within their stomachs is passed from one worker to the next until the water within it diminishes. At this point, the nectar becomes honey, which workers store in the cells of the honeycomb, 95% not used most of the time by bees.
Nigga don't take bee movie seriously
sadly, every greek takes it seriously, like it is having its own period or so.
Absolutely based.

Thank god I learned english as a young kid, I feel sorry for those who have to learn it in adulthood
This is a fucked up language
>taught
>though
>thought
>throughout
>through
>true
>thorough
none of those sound the same though
'If two witches were watching two watches, which witch would watch which watch?'
>thought
>taught
If you pronounce those 2 identically, you're failing
>lion
>(you pl.)play
>the grass
>shepherd
>also
>penis
They're almost indistinguishable in British English
>queue
>th
>t
those are obviously different sounds to anyone with ears
how do you call the bee movie?
Thou art good poster.

Shalt thou return to an ancient English and use thou instead of you?
i agree.
it always feels like i'm adressing everyone informally
Step aside citizen
>I
>you (singular)
>he/she (male/female)

>Their,There They're
>Pin, Pen

>Break, Brake
>Course, Coarse
>Hear, Here
and Finally...
> Raise, Rays, Rase, Raze, Rehs, Réis, Res
>also
>penis
what?
>can
>can't
They all sound same
No, the only thing it does is leading to confusion.
You know, we didn't use plural until a bunch of Frenchboos started using it in like the 1800s. It is retarded and it should stop.
>differentiating between a human and animal death
I like but how do you say it?
I wonder if it's not French influence desu.
Tu ( casual Singular)
Vous (formal singular or plural)
The deer died is "Dreri ngordhi."(ngordh is die for all animals except bee)
The bee died is " Bleta vdiq"
The man died is "Burri vdiq"
>bile
>bile
That's stupid man
I hate them Brazil guys adressing everyone formal like
"e voce???"
e voce? fuck you!
e tu?
Bru that's only true for the nominative case!
>sie (singular 3rd person, nominative)
>sie (plural 3rd person, nominative)
>Sie (formal singular 2nd person, nominative)
>Sie (formal plural 2nd person, nominative)
>>Pin, Pen
What? That's obviously different.
Some American dialects pronounce them the same, mainly the South
Another common one that is merged is cot and caught.
>Ecть
>ecт
>этo
>этoт
>no formal version of the word you

Also wow rude :/
I lived in Fort Worth as a kid and I fucking hated the "English" the locals "spoke" there
