- second person singular. The issuer addresses an individual subject directly, who corresponds to the pronouns your, you either you. For example: whatDo you know speak English?
- second person plural. The issuer addresses a collective subject, that is, it is more than one individual, and corresponds to the pronouns you guys, you Y you. For example: Kids, go to bed because it is already very late.
It should be noted that verbs in the imperative mood only have forms for the second person, both singular and plural. For example: Please, taking my hand as the plane takes off.
