Your ass, you, your majesty

What. Even. Tho.

[vyX2dK6g]

How does one tell the difference. Is it a matter of formality?

[JustusRobi3]

Yes. तू = informal; तुम = semiformal; आप = formal. European languages often hav a two-way distinction between formal and informal you; while Hindi has a three-way distinction. तू : cognate-for-cognate equivalent to thou.

[SaranyaDev11]

Wow I think you are a genius

[bhaskarprasoon]

Normally for elders and strangers, we use आप, for youngers we use तुम, तू

[vyX2dK6g]
