In modern Eevo, ''Tlaw'' (lit. "place") is used as a polite second-person pronoun for strangers or persons in positions of authority. It is still considered acceptable for some professions, such as superiors in military or schoolteachers, to refer to their counterparts with the familiar pronouns ''fiar'' and ''swad'', although nowadays using ''tlaw'' is becoming more common. There are some unexpected (from an Anglophone perspective) situations where it is appropriate to use a pronoun. | In modern Eevo, ''Tlaw'' (lit.
