Please can anybody tell if the pronoun "thou" is used in everyday life somewhere, in some vernacular?

I don't imagine so. It's definitely an archaic form now. _________________ Cheers m' dears!

Yes, it is often used in certain vernaculars, particularly in India where more than a dozen languages are officially recognized. In English, of course, it is almost archaic or even obsolete.
