Originally, <i>thou</i> was simply the singular counterpart to the plural pronoun <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ye_(pronoun)" title="Ye (pronoun)" style="text-decoration:none;color:rgb(11,0,128);background-image:none" target="_blank">ye</a></i>, derived from an <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proto-Indo-European_language" title="Proto-Indo-European language" style="text-decoration:none;color:rgb(11,0,128);background-image:none" target="_blank">ancient Indo-European</a> root. Following a process found in other Indo-European languages, <i>thou</i> was later used to express intimacy, familiarity or even disrespect, while another pronoun, <i>you</i>, the oblique/objective form of <i>ye</i>, was used for formal circumstances (see <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T%E2%80%93V_distinction" title="T–V distinction" style="text-decoration:none;color:rgb(11,0,128);background-image:none" target="_blank">T–V distinction</a>). In the 17th century, <i>thou</i> fell into disuse in the standard language but persisted, sometimes in altered form, in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_dialects_of_the_English_language#Europe" title="List of dialects of the English language" style="text-decoration:none;color:rgb(11,0,128);background-image:none" target="_blank">regional dialects</a> of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/England" title="England" style="text-decoration:none;color:rgb(11,0,128);background-image:none" target="_blank">England</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scotland" title="Scotland" style="text-decoration:none;color:rgb(11,0,128);background-image:none" target="_blank">Scotland</a>,<sup style="line-height:1em"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thou#cite_note-3" style="text-decoration:none;color:rgb(11,0,128);background-image:none;white-space:nowrap" target="_blank">[3]</a></sup> as well as in the language of such religious groups as the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religious_Society_of_Friends" title="Religious Society of Friends" style="text-decoration:none;color:rgb(11,0,128);background-image:none" target="_blank">Society of Friends</a>. Early English translations of the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bible" title="Bible" style="text-decoration:none;color:rgb(11,0,128);background-image:none" target="_blank">Bible</a> used <i>thou</i> and never <i>you</i> as the singular second-person pronoun, with the double effect of maintaining <i>thou</i> in usage and also imbuing it with an air of religious solemnity that is antithetical to its former sense of familiarity or disrespect.<sup style="line-height:1em"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thou#cite_note-Pressley-2" style="text-decoration:none;color:rgb(11,0,128);background-image:none;white-space:nowrap" target="_blank">[2]</a></sup> The use of the pronoun was also common in poetry.</blockquote>
