As somebody whose primary language is Dutch, the lack of an explicit plural “you” is one of the worst things.

If I’m talking to somebody, I can’t nicely refer to a group they are part of, because “you” means they themself specifically, “y’all” makes me feel like engineer TF2, and “you people” sounds condescending.
