  • I would get rid of the formal "Sie" and change it to the informal "Du". No need for the two to coexist. Sie/Du is german for "You".

    • How open is "Sie" still used on a day-to-day basis? Like do people use "Sie" for their boss?

      • We use "Sie" for adult people we don't know and at work for people like the boss etc. Online we only use "Du", except in formal emails. But there's a lot of exceptions to these rules. I try to use "Du" wherever I can. When younger people call me "Sie" I immediately offer them the "Du".

  • I have a few I would change, but the first change I'd make is to add a few regarding identification in certain situations.
