妳 (nǐ) is used in informal settings. It is a more casual way of saying "you" to a woman, compared to the more formal "您 (nín)".

The character 妳 (nǐ) is specifically used to address women in informal contexts, particularly in regions like Hong Kong and Taiwan. In these areas, 妳 is often employed in conversational language to emphasize the gender of the person being addressed, highlighting that the speaker is talking to a female.
In contrast, the more common character 你 (nǐ) is gender-neutral and can be used to address anyone, regardless of their gender. While 你 is widely understood and used across all Chinese-speaking regions, 妳 is more prevalent in casual conversations among friends or familiar acquaintances where the speaker wants to acknowledge the female gender of the person they are talking to.
Additionally, 妳 may appear in written forms, such as in text messages or social media, where informal and personal communication is favored. In formal contexts, however, 你 (nǐ) is generally preferred as it is considered more standard and polite.
