What is the royal you? You can be a 2nd person plural pronoun in addition to singular.

  The royal you is me making up a phrase to mean "I'm using the word you to mean the reader, not you the person I am responding to" I thought it was pretty obvious but yea you got me. Good point, well made.

    Thanks for the explanation. I had never heard of the royal you and couldn't find an explanation. I wasn't trying to "get you" just understand.

    Just write "you (plural)" next time to make yourself easily understood.
