Description
This section tackles the complex issue of how and when to use tuu, tum, and aap in Hindi-Urdu. The first set of responses represent the opinions of native, mostly younger, speakers; the second presents in-depth responses by scholars and teachers of Hindi-Urdu. The appropriateness of tuu is addressed in further questions, as is 'incorrect' phrasing such as 'Aap...ho'.
