"tu" meaning in Latvian

See tu in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Pronoun

IPA: [tu] Forms: no-table-tags [table-tags], tu [nominative], tevi [accusative], tevis [genitive], tev [dative], tevim [dative], tevi [instrumental], tevī [locative]
Etymology: From Proto-Balto-Slavic *tū, Proto-Indo-European *túh₂. The Latvian tevis comes from *tevens, with an -en-increased form showing an additional s by analogy with other genitive plurals. The dative form was originally closer to Old Prussian tebbei; the current form tev has a v due to influence from other declension forms, and the ending was reduced. The accusative tevi comes from *teven, with n by analogy to the accusative form of other words. The locative tevī was formed by analogy with i-stem nouns.
