A Facetious Proposal

The trouble with modern English is that one can't distinguish between second-person singular and plural without sounding like either a redneck or a "wise guy".

I propose we bring "thou" back into common usage. (True fact: in Shakespeare's time, thou did not rhyme with prow. It rhymed with you.)
