yourselves
UK: jɔːˈsɛlvz | US: jʊrˈsɛlvz
pron. The reflexive or emphatic form of "you," referring to the people being addressed (plural).
The word "yourselves" combines the possessive pronoun "your" (from Old English "ēower," meaning "belonging to you") with the plural noun "selves" (derived from "self," from Old English "self," meaning "one's own person"). The suffix "-ves" is an archaic plural form retained in words like "selves" and "lives." Over time, "yourselves" evolved as the plural reflexive/emphatic form of "you," emphasizing collective identity or action.
