Usage notes

 * The practice of towards a singular person is now mostly associated with archaic and poetic language.
 * However, it remains common in certain regional dialects and may transpire into colloquial Standard German. In the Rhineland, for example, it is sometimes heard as a compromise form between and  when the former feels too formal and the latter too informal (e.g. towards a new customer in a pub where  is used towards the regulars).
