Old Albic doesn't have a particularly intricate system of honorifics, only
a familiar/deferential distinction in 2nd person pronouns (familiar sg. _tha_,
du. _thu_, pl. _thi_; deferential sg. _la_, du. _lu_, pl. _li_), but not in
verbs. Perhaps things are that simple because the society is rather
egalitarian.
