lad

lass

god gi' ye godden/gi' ye godden/godden = good evening

even = evening

milady = my lady

[used mostly in 1500's]

*In Shakespeare, "You"/"Your" is used in formal address* and also for plural (if you're talking to more than one person).

The words "Thou"/"Thee"/"Thy" is informal, for when you're talking to one person that you know, love, or look down on.

If want more specific information on formal versus informal address, look up information about the Spanish "tu" and "usted", or the French "tu" or "vous".

What is connection between God and man?

One of the "Hidden Words" of Baha'u'llah, prophet-founder of the Baha'i Faith, says: "O Son of Man! Veiled in My Immemorial being and in the ancient eternity of My essence, I knew My love for thee; therefore I have created thee, have engraved on thee Mine image and revealed to thee My Beauty."
