In the context of an international award ceremony celebrating the achievements of young Latin American scientists in the field of space research, a panel discussion has been organized including renowned physics experts from various countries. During the panel, a posthumous tribute to Professor Carlos Gutierrez, a prominent physicist who significantly contributed to the development of science on the continent, will be presented. The tribute will be introduced by the president of the organizing committee, followed by some words from the honoree's daughter, a promising scientist who continued her father's legacy. In this formal protocol, it is essential for participants to use appropriate language, distinguishing between formal and informal situations. Assuming the role of one of the young scientists who must address their colleagues and the general public to express their reflections on Carlos Gutierrez's contribution, how should they use verbs and pronouns of address in this context of formality?

In a formal context like the one described, colloquial expressions should be avoided, respectful language should be maintained, and the appropriate pronouns and verbs of address should be used for the situation.

Using the second person singular, with pronouns like 'tú' or 'vosotros', is a common way to set an appropriate tone to honor a colleague in a formal event.

In a formal tribute event, colloquial expressions can be used to personalize the speech and connect with the audience in a closer way.

Courtesy pronouns of address, such as 'tú' and 'vosotros', are appropriate in a formal context to foster an atmosphere of camaraderie and mutual respect.

First-person plural verbs, like 'hemos logrado' or 'queremos compartir', are more suitable in a formal speech to imply the active participation of the audience in the ceremony.
