And what language and region is it?
I’ve noticed my language teacher uses the informal you in one language and the formal one in the other.

I’ve literally never heard “您” in my entire life, except for like Chinese TV Drama or in a Chinese-Language class where the word is being taught.
That said, I’m not ever near politicians or bussiness people, just another “filthy peasant”.
Used in Mandarin speaking places. You is “你” ni 3rd tone, You (Formal) is “您” nin 2nd tone(?), the 您 character even has the 心 part to show how much “heart” you meant when you use that pronoun lol, its literlly 你 (you) + 心 (heart).
I don’t think Cantonese even has a formal “you”, everything is so colloquial and informal.
