    • 2024, Felicia Green, “Så lever ni i svenskan [How ni stays alive in Swedish]”, in Språktidningen, numbers 4–5, page 40:
      1960-talets du-reform markerar skiftet mellan dåtidens formella tilltalsformer – med titlar som direktören och majorskan eller omskrivningar som "Reses det direkt till Katrineholm?" för att undvika titelproblematiken – och nutidens jämställda duande.
      The du-reform of the 1960s marks the shift from the formal forms of address of the past – with titles like Director and Majoress or rephrasings like "Is Katrineholm the direct destination?" to avoid problems with titles – to the equal use of du of the present.
