EP 96 Youse

G'day youse guys out there in listener land. English is an unusual language in many ways. And one of those features is the fact that English doesn't use a second person plural in its formal language. That means there is no plural for "you". However, Australians have found an ingenious solution to this in informal settings and spoken language, hence the word for this week - youse. Youse is an informal pronoun and we talk about pronouns in general and controversies related to this topic recently. We talk about gendered language and the positives and negatives of using gender neutral, or incorporating inclusivity in our languages.
