“hwi” addresses two people - second person plural. so:
english
You guys look beautiful
or
You two are beautiful
toki pona
sina tu li pona lukin

> “hwi” addresses two people

Not necessarily two. It could be more than two people. Or it could be one person whom you are addressing formally.

Also, the standard English second person plural pronoun is "you":
