    Beside singular and plural pronouns, the Germanic languages used to have dual pronouns.

    For example, in Old English you could say:
    'Hē seah unc' (He saw the two of us)
    'Wit sāwon hine' (We two saw him)

    My new infographic below tells you all about these Germanic dual pronouns.

    What would the English, German, and Dutch dual pronouns look like now if they hadn't disappeared? Subscribe to my Patreon to find out: patreon.com/yvanspijk
