Which pronoun would you use in the second person?

  1. I

  2. You

  3. They

  4. She

The correct answer is: You

The use of "you" as a pronoun in the second person is appropriate because it directly addresses the person or people being spoken or written to. In English, the second person is specifically designed to engage the audience, making it personal and direct. This is in contrast to the other choices, which are first person ("I") and third person ("they" and "she"). These do not serve the function of addressing someone directly, which is the hallmark of the second-person pronoun. Therefore, "you" is the correct choice for the second person.
