"Mayhap"

[Iscah]

Old replies, but whatever.

I absolutely hate how they use thee/thou, etc, all over the place, because they use it to mean formal speech when it is actually the informal/personal when it was in use in English? Ugggh. They do overuse mayhaps, ere, must needs, pray, but I just chalk that up to the local dialect.

Depending on time period and context, it can be as simple as thou=singular, you=plural. Then it somehow became a thing to address someone with the plural form as a way of showing respect, and it slowly took over everything.

Also I don't think Urianger is doing it to be formal. It's either the simpler single/plural or perhaps it's just how he speaks to his friends. He does use "you" in the formal sense at least once, late in Shadowbringers –

to Feo Ul during the scene with Bismarck, using the formal version to address the king of the pixies. He also possibly uses it for Bismarck as well, a bit cloudier due to translation convention in effect, but Bismarck uses "thou" in reply.

Mayhap thee could try another game?

* thou couldst

'Anon' ('later'..ish...)

It means "soon".
