===Etymology 1===
Altered from ''[[si]]'' in the 19th century to prevent having two notes of the musical scale starting with the same letter, to become ''[[ti]]''; the vowel was then changed to 'e' to signify a flattened note.

# {{lb|nl|archaic}} in idiom; a form of the definite article [[de]]
#: {{ux-lite|nl|Te drommel|t=by Jove.}}
====Usage notes====
This preposition used to govern the dative case. It also fused with the dative forms of the definite article:
* {{sense|at, in}} {{l-lite|nl|ter}} = te + {{l-lite|nl|der}} for feminine singular.
* {{sense|at, in}} {{l-lite|nl|ten}} = te + {{l-lite|nl|den}} in all other cases.
Combinations with the nominative form of the article, like *''te het'' or *''te de'' have never become part of the language. The collapse of the inflection system and the related demise of the distinction between masculine and feminine gender (for most speakers) has pushed this preposition into partial disuse. It does however occur in a fair number of idiomatic expressions, often with fossilized case endings, e.g.:
: {{ux-lite|nl|'''te''' elfder ure.|inline=1|at the eleventh hour}}
: {{ux-lite|nl|'''te''' eigen bate|inline=1|for one's own profit}}
(''Elfder'', ''ure'' and ''bate'' are dative forms of {{m-lite|nl|elfde}}, {{m-lite|nl|uur}} and {{m-lite|nl|baat}} respectively.)

===Alternative forms===
* {{alt|fi|Te||when used politely}}
===Etymology===
From {{inh-lite|fi|urj-fin-pro|*tek}}, from {{inh-lite|fi|urj-pro|sc=Latinx|*te}}. The word is inflected as plural, but there is no plural marker in the nominative, except in dialects ({{m-lite|fi|tet}}).
===Pronunciation===
{{fi-pronunciation}}
===Pronoun===
{{head-lite|fi|pronouns|cat2=personal pronouns}}
# {{lb|fi|personal}} [[you]] {{gloss|second-person plural; when addressing many persons or when addressing politely or formally one person}}
====Usage notes====
* Depending on the context, the pronoun can sometimes be omitted in written language if the text remains fluent – the pronoun is in spoken language practically always used (compare the usage of {{m-lite|fi|sinä||you {{g|s}}}}).
* When addressing one person politely or formally, it is recommended to capitalize the pronoun in writing: {{m-lite|fi|Te}}.
* When addressing only one person, the active past participle must be in the ''singular'' in the compound forms that use it (e.g. negative, perfect, pluperfect forms):
** {{ux-lite|inline=1|fi|'''Te''' ette <u>ollut</u> täällä silloin.|'''You''' <u>were</u> not here at that time.|q=negative past indicative}}
** {{ux-lite|inline=1|fi|'''Te''' olette <u>ollut</u> täällä silloin.|'''You''' have <u>been</u> here at that time.|q=affirmative present perfect indicative}}
** {{ux-lite|inline=1|fi|'''Te''' ette ole <u>ollut</u> täällä silloin.|'''You''' have not <u>been</u> here at that time.|q=negative present perfect indicative}}
** {{ux-lite|inline=1|fi|'''Te''' olisitte <u>ollut</u> täällä silloin.|'''You''' would have <u>been</u> here at that time.|q=affirmative present perfect conditional}}
** {{ux-lite|inline=1|fi|'''Te''' ette olisi <u>ollut</u> täällä silloin.|'''You''' would have not <u>been</u> here at that time.|q=negative present perfect conditional}}
** {{ux-lite|inline=1|fi|'''Te''' lienette <u>ollut</u> täällä silloin.|'''You''' have probably <u>been</u> here at that time.|q=affirmative present perfect potential}}
** {{ux-lite|inline=1|fi|'''Te''' ette liene <u>ollut</u> täällä silloin.|'''You''' haven't probably <u>been</u> here at that time.|q=negative present perfect potential}}
** {{ux-lite|inline=1|fi|'''Te''' olitte <u>ollut</u> täällä silloin.|'''You''' had <u>been</u> here at that time.|q=affirmative past perfect indicative}}
** {{ux-lite|inline=1|fi|'''Te''' ette ollut <u>ollut</u> täällä silloin.|'''You''' had not <u>been</u> here at that time.|q=negative past perfect indicative; note the duplicate {{m|fi||ollut}}}}
====Declension====
* Irregular (inflectional stem {{m-lite|fi||tei-}}, as if in the plural). The [[comitative]] and [[instructive]] forms don't exist; the [[abessive]] is hardly used.
* In addition to the standard set of cases, {{m-lite|fi||te}} and other personal pronouns have a specific [[accusative]] form, {{m-lite|fi|teidät}}.
{{fi-decl-pron|1s=[[sinä]]|2s=[[sinun]]|3s=[[sinua]]|4s=[[sinut]]|5s=[[sinussa]]|6s=[[sinusta]]|7s=[[sinuun]]|8s=[[sinulla]]|9s=[[sinulta]]|10s=[[sinulle]]|11s=[[sinuna]]|12s=[[sinuksi]]|14s=[[sinutta]]|1p='''te'''|2p=[[teidän]]|3p=[[teitä]]|4p=[[teidät]]|5p=[[teissä]]|6p=[[teistä]]|7p=[[teihin]]|8p=[[teillä]]|9p=[[teiltä]]|10p=[[teille]]|11p=[[teinä]]|12p=[[teiksi]]|14p=[[teittä]]|adv=no}}
