OR notes

[edit]

I went to see how much the eBay bid stood at and I added up the views of the first 15-something YouTube video's I found with "Chavez shut up". Funny enough there's an article with this title on Wikipedia.--Steven Fruitsmaak (Reply) 19:20, 19 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

'Te'

[edit]

I don't think this needs noting, as using te is standard in Spain, use of usted is more to do with dialect than politeness when used between equals?

Perhaps, but I would expect heads of state at a formal summit in front of cameras to be more polite and use usted. They're calling eachother Mr. President and such, I can't hear any other te's but no usted's either, I think this is a valid point to make as English doesn't distinguish between te - usted (tu - vous). --Steven Fruitsmaak (Reply) 23:36, 19 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
