Spell Bee Word: You


What does you mean?

Word: You

Part of Speech: Pronoun

Meaning: You means the person or people we are talking to. Thank you, Papa.

Sounds like: ewe (a female sheep); U (the letter of the alphabet that comes after T); yew (a kind of evergreen tree)

How do you spell you?

Syllables: you

Tricky part: You sounds just like the letter U, so some children write only u. The word begins with a y that is easy to forget.

Watch out for: yu, yoo

Memory tip: You is never just the letter u. Picture a yak standing at the front of the word: you starts with y.

You in a sentence

Example 1: Thank you for the gift.

Example 2: Can you help me, please?

Example 3: I will wait for you at the gate.

Fun Fact

Long ago English used thou when talking to one friend, and ye or you for more than one person. Today you does both jobs.
