The royal you is me making up a phrase to mean "I'm using the word you to mean the reader, not you the person I am responding to"

I thought it was pretty obvious but yea you got me. Good point, well made.

Just write "you (plural)" next time to make yourself easily understood.

No, please never do that.

Thanks for the explanation. I had never heard of the royal you and couldn't find an explanation. I wasn't trying to "get you" just understand.
