      Yes we have vosotros (in Spain) or ustedes (in the rest of the Spanish-speaking world -can’t speak for Equatorial Guinea though). But we don’t call it a 4th person pronoun. It’s just the plural form of the 2nd person pronoun:

      1st singular: I / yo

      1st plural: we / nosotros

      2nd singular: you / tú, vos, usted if you wanna be formal

      2nd plural: plural you, y’all / ustedes, vosotros

      3rd singular: she, he, singular they / ella, él, elle (that last one mostly used among the young queer/progressive community in some countries)

      3rd plural: they / ellos, ellas, elles (same above)

      Don’t know what a 4th person pronoun would be. And I’m a Spanish teacher in South America lol

        Otoh, in Spain if you say Usted or Ustedes they’ll think you’re a dork
