Re: Translation in Icelandic or Old Norse
Hi Freyja,
regarding the sentence “You are our family”, does “you” refer to one person, two persons, or more than two persons? (The number of people being addressed will determine how to translate the pronoun into Old Norse and Icelandic.) Given the content of the sentence, I presume that when there is a choice, you would prefer an informal pronoun to a formal pronoun?
The word “family” has more than one meaning. If “you” refers to one person, then would you say that “family” means “relative”? If “you” refers to more than one person, then “family” could mean “immediate family” (e.g. “nuclear family”), or “extended family” (like “kin”), or “close-knit group of people” (e.g. “corporate family”). Which sense of “family” do you mean?

Re:
Hello there,
Kyrgyz has two past tenses that could be used to ask your question — the recent past and the distant past. It also has separate polite and familiar second-person pronouns. A polite pronoun would be used when speaking to someone whom you’ve just met, or to an older relative such as a grandparent; a familiar pronoun would be used when speaking to a pet, and would generally be used when speaking to a sibling or a close friend.
Thus, there are four basic variations on how to translate the question “What did you do?” into Kyrgyz:
• Эмне кылдыңыз? (recent past, affixed polite singular second-person pronoun)
• Эмне кылдың? (recent past, affixed familiar singular second-person pronoun)
• Эмне кылгансыз? (distant past, affixed polite singular second-person pronoun)
• Эмне кылгансың? (distant past, affixed familiar singular second-person pronoun)
Note that the distant past versions might be better translated as “What have you done?”.

Second person pronouns in Kyrgyz- "You"
Hello!
I am a student in the USA studying Kyrgyz in a class and I was wondering if anyone could translate these for me-
"What did you do?"- when talking to a sibling
"What did you do?"- when talking to someone you just met
"What did you do?"- when talking to an older relative (like a grandparent)
"What did you do?"- when talking to a pet
"What did you do?"- when talking to a close friend
Thanks!
