you are seated
| Morphological Notes | Verb; present tense; middle voice; indicative mood; 2nd person singular (Gr,V,IPM2,,S,) — ongoing state of being seated, addressed to one person. |
| Rendering Rationale | The present tense indicates ongoing state, and the middle voice reflects a stative or self-involved condition of being seated. "You are seated" preserves the second person singular and the durative present sense of sitting or remaining in place. |
