Thou, Thee, Thy, Thine
A medieval porn-slanted grammar lesson, pretty much lifted from a comment discussion with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

It's here now because I want to be able to find it quickly, because you NEVER KNOW when appropriate formal pronouns will become important.
* * *
thou = you (subjective, like when you'd use "I" instead of "me" for first person; Wilt thou come with me?)
thee = you (objective, when you'd use "me" instead of "I" for first person; I desire thee. I would like to bugger thee. *eyebrow wiggle*)
thy = your (Show me thy sword...baby)
thine = yours (This buttplug is not mine, it is thine.)
Lavinia, is you used as the plural subjective? I read that somewhere...Give me a phrase and I'll add it in. *grin* Let it be a menage! A menage of any number you desire! Menage a huit!
