§Grammar and usage
You takes a plural verb even when it refers to one person ('You are', 'You were', not 'You was'); the question tag after an imperative is 'will you' or 'won't you' (as in 'Close the door, will you'); in formal writing, 'one' can replace general 'you' ('One should respect elders').
अक्सर पूछा जाता है: you एक व्यक्ति के लिए भी plural verb लेता है ('You are', 'You were', 'You was' नहीं); imperative के बाद question tag 'will you?' या 'won't you?' है ('Close the door, will you?'); औपचारिक लेखन में सामान्य 'you' के स्थान पर 'one' आ सकता है ('One should respect elders')।
