pronoun
second person singular or plural 1 used to refer to the person or people that the speaker is addressing : are you listening? | I love you. • used to refer to the person being addressed together with other people regarded in the same class : you Australians. • used in exclamations to address one or more people : you fools | hey, you! 2 used to refer to any person in general : after a while, you get used to it. PHRASES you and yours you together with your family and close friends. you-know-who (or you-know-what) used to refer to someone (or something) known to the hearer without specifying their identity : the minister was later to be sacked by you-know-who. ORIGIN Old English ēow, accusative and dative of gē (see ye 1 ); related to Dutch u and German euch. During the 14th cent. you began to replace ye 1 , thou 1 , and thee ; by the 17th cent. it had become the ordinary second person pronoun for any number and case.
Oh wow, you are cracking me up! (Didn't have time to scan my brain for Wordie-er words just then). I am getting such delight from your suggestions to my list. Don't be offended if some don't make the cut; they are all pretty creative. THANKS!!!
