a word meaning 'you're'

The only word I could thing of roughly matching the idea would be "siifuri" the word for 'own' with the suffix meaning 'your'. Does anyone have a better word for it? Obviously im fairly new

We don't quite have contractions like that. You'd just use "hi los", just "hi", just "los", or nothing at all, since subjects, as well as forms of "to be" can be implied.

What I'm saying is that we don't need a word to contract "you are" because you can just leave it out and up to context.

There actually is a word that specifically means "you're," losei. It appears in only one line of dialogue; fullosei dovahkiin "so, you're the Dragonborn."

As hiith mentioned, contractions can often be left to context. If you want to say "I'm the Dragonborn," you'd just say zu'u dovahkiin. "I don't know" would be ni mindok.
