When the phrase your ears originate?

The phrase "your ears" is a very basic and common phrase, so it's difficult to pinpoint an exact origin. However, we can say that it likely arose as a natural extension of the English language:

* "Your" has been part of English for centuries, evolving from Old English "eower".

* "Ears" is also an old word, coming from Old English "eare".

Therefore, "your ears" as a phrase would have emerged naturally as people started using the words "your" and "ears" together to refer to someone's ears.

There isn't a single, specific historical moment we can point to as the origin of the phrase. It simply evolved over time as English itself evolved.
