Is "How's you?" grammatically correct?
Since ‘is’ is a form of the verb ‘be’, so to quote the great Chandler Bing: “Could it be more wrong?” :DI'm so glad somebody put up this query! Many thanks ! ‘How’s you?’ is another one of pop culture’s grammatical evils! As a grammar coach, it infuriates me inside (albeit I maintain a calm countenance on the surface :p) to have myself enquired after in such fashion!‘How’s you?’ is essentially the contraction for ‘How is you ?’ Stating the universally known here, that the pronoun ‘you’ never works with ‘is’, making the usage ‘How’s you?’ absolutely wrong and invalid ! Whatever happened to good old ‘How are you?’ that's been around for as long as can be remembered ?‘You’ as a pronoun in English is always given plural treatment. Hence the combinations of you with forms of be in the present and past tense are as follows :Present tense :You + arePast tense :You + wereThe forms ‘is’ and ‘was’ find no usage in conjunction with ‘you’ in legitimate grammar except for literature and motion pictures where the characters are deliberately made to use the combination in their speech to establish their rural or uneducated background.

Japanese - Is this grammatically correct?
It's grammatically correct but it doesn't need 'desu or da' to be grammatically correct. 'desu' doesn't make sense because it's a polite word. You wrote an insult. Mixing polite words with impolite words is just wierd. You technically can use 'da' but it's not needed. You make it a bit stronger in meaning and feeling you can add 'yo' or 'da yo' yahari, anata wa honto ni baka da yo! The page below explains 'da' in depth
Is 'peoples' grammatically correct?
Yes.“People” is a collective noun referring to many individuals. If that is what you mean, use the singular.“People seemed to enjoy the movie”“Peoples” is the plural form of a slightly different meaning of people, that of a group bound together by a common identity. Often it is used in the same manner of “nation”. In that case, the singular refers to one specific group, and the plural refers to different groups. As in, “Italian people,” “Cherokee people,” “Jewish people,”“He studied the lives of various people in the pioneer era” = he stidied the lives of individuals.“He studied the lives of various peoples in the pioneer era” = He studied the lives of various cultural groupsTwo other words that follow the same pattern are grass and rice.“grass”= a bunch of blades of grass.“grasses” = different types of grass“rice”= a portion of of rice,“rices” = different types of rice.

Is 'gotten' a grammatically correct word?
The past participle of “Get” is both “gotten” and “got” in American English, but there is a difference in meaning.I’ve got a gold ringI possess a gold ringI’ve gotten a gold ringI acquired a gold ringI’ve got the ballI caught the ball.I’ve gotten the ballI fetched the ball.Generally, the subtle difference is that “got” is a state of affairs while “gotten” is a process. An American would say, “I’ve got three children,” but not “I’ve gotten three children” unless they are returning from some sort of weird shopping trip.Generally, when people leave their country and settle in another place, their language is more conservative than the folks they left back home. Compare Icelandic with Norwegian, for example. There is an island in the Chesapeake Bay in Virginia where the people still spoke Elizabethan English until quite recently.Many things that are archaic in British English are still current in American English, such as “gotten” as the past participle of “get,” and the secondary stress. (The American pronunciation of SECreTARy is older than the British pronunciation SECretree.)Before any Britons get off an a “we invented the language” tear, think of British English as progressive and American English as archaic.64.3% of native English speakers are Americans. 16.7% of native English speakers are British.
