Is that how thay speak in the Land where never duels rule?? ( smile ) Or jewels.
I think this has been discussed before but what I still would like to know about this subject is:
Is English the only language that has dropped the difference between the polite and the familiar form of you? The languages I know of still have that difference, but I do not know all languages.
The American oriented countries, like ours definitly is, take over this neglect between you and thee or thou . (jij and U )
I think it a loss. But who am I?
