My native language is Spanish, where we have 3 2nd person pronouns depending on the person: "Tú" is informal, used when talking to friends, family or an unknown person, that isn't higher rank than you, that's younger than you; "Usted" is formal, used when talking with unknown people or with people with a higher rank (like a student to their teacher, an employee to their boss, or even someone, that isn't younger that you, with who you stumble while walking on the streets); and "Vos", the highest honorific pronoun, and only used in court, when talking to the King/Queen, or maybe if you ever talk to the Pope.

Where would "Ты" and "Вы" fall? I've heard from this subreddit that you wouldn't use "Bы" when talking to a cashier for example, so it doesn't follow the same as in Spanish "Tú/Usted", and I want to know to better speak the language.

Thanks in advance!
