You

You (stressed /ˈjuː/, unstressed /jə/) is the second-person personal pronoun, both singular and plural, and both nominative and oblique case, in Modern English. The oblique (objective) form you functioned previously in the roles of both accusative and dative, as well as all instances after a preposition. The possessive forms of you are your (used before a noun) and yours (used in place of a noun). The reflexive forms are yourself (singular) and yourselves (plural).

Famous quotes containing the word you:

“Who are you, and what do you get out of this? Just a guy who’s paid to do other people’s laundry.”
—William Faulkner (1897–1962)

“This made you first to know the Why
You liked, then after to apply
That liking; and approach so one the tother,
Till either grew a portion of the other;
Each styled by his end,
The copy of his friend.”
—Ben Jonson (1572–1637)

“Do you know why I came to you, Amy? Why I came to be your friend? Because you called to me. Out of your loneliness you called me and brought me into being. And I came, so that your childhood could be bright and full of friendliness. Now you must send me away.... You’ll remember me for a while, mourn a little, but then you’ll forget. And that is as it should be.”
—Dewitt Bodeen (1908–1988)
