How can the word "YOU" be used formally or informally?
I'm having problems w/a new student who wants to know the use of formal and informal "YOU". Normally I would know the answer, however this is a special case.

English does not have different versions of 'you' to use in formal/informal situations or to people of different 'rank'. The word 'You' is used in all situations. If this does not answer your question, perhaps you could give us some more detail about what you mean by formal/informal .
