This is completely off topic, and your grammar lesson is wrong. "Thou" is second person familiar, not second person singular. And "you" is second person formal, NOT second person plural. Neither has a plural form. Shakespearean characters often berate crowds in the thou form. I'll admit, if I would have thought about it... addressing a crowd in the familiar is condescending and abusive, especially if your screenname has a patent of nobility. On the other hand, the King James Bible addresses the deity in the familiar all the time, and the religious inferiority was the relationship I was shooting for.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":


  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:
    a, abbr, b, big, blockquote, br, caption, center, col, colgroup, dd, del, details, div, dl, dt, em, font, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hr, i, ins, li, ol, p, pre, readmore, small, span, spoiler, strike, strong, sub, summary, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, tr, tt, u, ul, wbr
  • You may need to use entities for some characters, as follows. (Exception: Within code tags, you can put the characters literally.)
            For:     Use:
    & &amp;
    < &lt;
    > &gt;
