What is the difference, and when should be applied, thou, though, tough, and thought? I believe the following is correct, but I may as well ask to be certain; and I didn't find it on the site, so it should be an useful question too.
Thou. Archaic form of you, synonimous to thee.
Though. Synonimous to however.
Tough. Synonimous to strong, resilient.
Thought. Synonimous to idea.

Hi Pablo
You have the definitions correct. Here are some sentences:
Thou/you should not steal. Beef is nice, though/however I prefer chicken. This paint is very tough/resilient. It was a nice thought/idea.
Note: the archaic words "thou" and "thee" are not synonymous. "Thou" is a subjective form and "thee" is objective": Thou art fair, I beseech thee.
Sure it helps. Thank you for clarification on the thou/thee difference; the use cases helped clarify the matter. Hopefuly this thread solves somebody else's problems as well.
