Please be patient

Our volunteers look into many questions every day; sometimes it takes them a little while to answer.

Pro tip: you can rename the thread title with `.tr <thread name>`

Make it descriptive, including relevant context, but also to the point. This way you improve your chances of getting a more relevant and specific answer.

I think it would be rude but in a way that has no equivalent in english

#

it might be like calling your friend mr. so and so as if you'd never met them before

#

interestingly, not the exact same case, but in shakespeare you find a lot of switching between you and thou to indicate closeness and distance

Rude ? No. Silly ? Maybe a bit.

Saying "Vous allez bien cher ami ?" to your friend with a half serious tone can be a bit funny. Usually saying vous to a single person is a mark of respect, I don't see it being rude.
