Solution: You, overseas - NYT Crossword

The trick to a clue like “You, overseas” is to know that it is asking you for the word “You” in a foreign language (hence the clue word “overseas”). Got that? Good. Now your job is to figure out which language. There are a lot to choose from. TOI, for example, means “you” in French, but that’s not the answer. Now, if you know about the lean and hungry CASSIUS, who went on to be one of the recipients of Julius Caesar’s famous “Et tu”’s, you can fill that in, and that gives you the S. The only language I know that has a word meaning “you” that begins with an S is German, and the word is SIE. UPDATE: I have since been informed by an alert commenter that the Turkish words for “you” are SIZ and SEN, so I sit corrected. SIE was the only word I knew at the time, but I’m always learning.
