Plural you (“y’all”, basically) used to be “i”, but because of an archaic inflection rule, there were often an “n” at the end of a word before “i” (like, “när kommen i?”; “when are y’all coming?”). Because of this, “i” eventually turned into “ni” since the n of the previous word merged with i.
It is real and my biggest concern right now is that European politicians seem so quiet about this. This conversation, including Rubio’s comment, is scandalous.
