Chinese Learning
What are the differences between 你 and 您
你 and 您
“你”和“您”都可以翻成you，但是“您”用于长者、长辈、上级，表示尊敬；“你”有表示多数的“你们”，而“您”没有相应的“您们”，表示多数也说“你们”。
你 and 您 both mean "you." But "您" is more polite than "你" and often indicates the person being addressed is older or holds a higher status. Moreover, "你" has corresponding plural form "你们," but you can never say "您们."
