Spanish has formal (usted/ustedes) and informal (tú/vos/vosotros/vosotras) second-person pronouns. Tú is standard informal in most regions; vos is used in parts of Latin America; vosotros/vosotras is used in Spain for informal plural. Choose based on your relationship and regional context. Object pronouns (te, lo, la, le, os, los, las, les) vary by region and formality.
