MY court version 2

[Jeslek]

MY court is in order again. This time we will be discussing ways of addressing people in authority (when speaking to them). Here are some examples:

President: Mr. President
Vice President: Mr. Vice President
Cabinet members: Mr. Secretary
Chief Justice: Mr. Chief Justice
Senator: Senator Jones

and so forth. However there are harder ones. So, don't google and see how many of the following you get right. To see the answer, highlight the white text afterwards.

 

[Jeslek]

Foreign Ambassador: Mr. Ambassador, or Excellency

Judge: Justice or Madam Justice, or Judge Jones

Mayor: Mayor Jones, or Your Honor

The Pope: Your Holiness, or Most Holy Father

Cardinal: Your Eminence, or Cardinal Jones

Priest: Father, or Father Jones

Royalty except king/queen: Your Royal Highness, or Sir / Madam

Duke: Your Grace

Marquess: Lord / Lady

Viscount: Lord / Lady

So how many did you get right? There are 10 of them

 

[GOD ALMIGHTY]

what about Madam Secretary?

 

[Jeslek]

Whatever, I must have skipped one. I can't remember Condoleeza Rice's name most of the time anyways. Sorry....

 

[HeXp£Øi±]

I always like the 'Gentle lady' in congress and the house.

"Will the Gentle Lady please rise"
