When you're first learning Slovenian, understanding how to address people is really important. In Slovenian, we use different words for 'you' depending on whether you're speaking to one person or many, and also on how well you know them.
For now, focus on 'ti'. This is the word you use for 'you' when you're talking to a single person you know well, like a friend, family member, or someone your own age. It's the informal singular 'you'.
Think of it like saying 'thou' in old English, but in a friendly way! You'll use this a lot in casual conversations.
