a passing thought; how much solace do we each find in words?

"When we use the 'we' pronoun we place two people behind a joint action almost as if they form a composite being. Many languages have a special pronoun to use about two - and only two - people. This pronoun is called dual, or something that is shared by two. I think it's a useful concept, because there are times when subjects are neither single nor many. You are 'we two', and a 'we too' as if 'we' cannot be split. When this pronoun suddenly makes its appearance, fairytale rules come into play, as if with a wave of a wand..."
