Levis Posted July 21, 2007 Report Share Posted July 21, 2007 (edited) I've actually been around almost 2 years more than you, Ray! Another secret about me is that 6 months after I joined my account mysteriously vanished. I managed to get it restored though I lost some 400 posts! Laurie and I share an SF anniversary actually, we're just 4 members away from each other.But our registration dates are 6 months apart Ahem, no you need not use the suffix, I don't mind at all! It's not essential [i just thought of that registration story yesterday and was looking for an excuse to tell it] Edited July 21, 2007 by Guest because I talk lots but I provide explanations as to why Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Joe Posted July 21, 2007 Report Share Posted July 21, 2007 Yes, the great crash of '05. My original registration date was 03/15/03 but it and a few thousand posts were lost. We weathered that storm and now enjoy the great servers of the new SF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawna Posted July 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2007 so is the "san" at the end of a Japanese name a show of respect like the "ji"? Kevin-san? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farin Posted July 21, 2007 Report Share Posted July 21, 2007 San (ã•ã‚“, San?) is the most common honorific and is a title of respect. It is used for the surnames or given names of both males and females. Although in translation san is usually rendered as a common courtesy title like “Mr.†or “Ms.â€, unlike these it is never used in self-reference. San may also be used in combination with nouns describing the addressee or referent other than the person's name; for example, a bookseller might be addressed or referred to as honya-san ("bookseller" + san) and a butcher, as nikuya-san ("butcher" + san). San is also used when talking about companies and other similar entities. For example, the offices or shop of a company called Kojima Denki might be referred to as "Kojima Denki-san" by another nearby company. This may be seen on the small maps often used in phone books and business cards in Japan, where the names of surrounding companies are written using san. Although, strictly speaking, not an honorific title in this usage, san is also attached to the names of some kinds of foods; for example, fish used for cooking can be referred to as sakana-san. Likewise, this suffix is sometimes applied to animals—a rabbit might be usagi-san. "Mr. Grocery Store" and "Miss Rabbit" ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky Posted July 22, 2007 Report Share Posted July 22, 2007 Earthangel pulled up the old dedications thread in Fun and Games. Lots of old posters there. The famous Karhul, of course, but one guy I miss a lot. ATC. He was a great guy. I do miss him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
