subject pronoun object pronoun second-person singular pronoun second-person plural pronoun you https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/You (To) yourselves, (to) yourself. Anyone, one; an unspecified individual or group of individuals (as subject or object). Originally, you was specifically plural (indicating multiple people), and specifically the object form (serving as the object of a verb or preposition; like us as opposed to we). The subject pronoun was ye, and the corresponding singular pronouns were thee and thou, respectively. In some forms of (older) English, you and ye doubled as polite singular forms, e.g. used in addressing superiors, with thee and thou being the non-polite singular forms. In the 1600s, some writers objected to the use of "singular you" (compare objections to the singular they), but in modern English thee and thou are archaic and all but nonexistent and you is used for both the singular and the plural. Several forms of English now distinguish singular you from various marked plural forms, such as you guys, y'all, or youse, though not all of these are completely equivalent or considered Standard English.
