Wait
Is "ye" just a plural version of "you"? Like "y'all"?

@vaporeon_ yes. the word is archaic in most dialects of english nowadays

(there is also another, now archaic, sense where it means, and is exactly purronouced like, “the”. fur a period of time the anglo-saxon letter thorn was transliterated into modern english as “y”)

@vaporeon_ (if you’ve ever seen a phrase like “ye olde toy shoppe”, that’s just the word “the”, completely sepurrate from the other kind of “ye” you were talking about.)

(and in case i have accidentally misled you, the sense of “ye” that means “you [plural]” is purronounced “yee” like you would expect)

Follow

@vaporeon_ yes, so long as you don’t mind coming off quite old-timey
