Yes I too, read the Wikipedia entry for thou/thee.

Are the Outlander writers just dumb or something then? Or is what you're referring to ("thou art") just a different context.

Because in Outlander, the quakers clearly use "thee is" and not "thou art/are".

Because they use it as the second person singular.

Minor spoilers for latest season of Outlander

Thee is a wolf
