    I hate how English overuses personal pronouns.

    “Know your ABCs?”

    Nyet. I refuse to take ownership of the modern Latin alphabet, which is used by billions of English speakers worldwide and with minor variations by over a hundred more languages. A standard ordering of its letters is a common good by and for the public domain so there is no “ABCs” of mine, yours or any other single person but rather “the ABCs”.
