Tu/Vosotros vs. Usted/Ustedes?

Question

I have heard that usted/ustedes is used more in Latin America than European Spanish to refer to a group of people ( you-singular) and (you-plural). However if I was making a sentence and I wanted to add emphasis therefore adding the conjugation at the start, would I use Tú or Usted ( speaking to one person ) and Vosotros or Ustedes(speaking to more than one person ) or If i was in a convosation with lets say a teacher and he asked me ¿cómo estás? would I reply ' estoy bien y tú? ' or ' estoy bien y usted? Just a tiny bit confused on how to use each of the variations. A simple but to the point answer would be much appreciated.

Answer 1

• Personal Pronouns

I think this qualifies as "a simple but to the point answer".
