In my nation we have a lot of vocabulary for respect people especially informal like father, mother, brother, sister and others.
For example for woman we use her name with Xan it is very polite and nice. For man we put Kaka in front of his name or barez etc.. You can potentially switch to the informal one, but only after directly asking the person. Your email address will not be published.

Well hey there I'm Emma from mmmEnglish and in this lesson, I'm going to show you how to show respect in English because it's something that my students ask me often because they've realised that in English we don't have many specific words or pronouns to show respect like lots of other languages do so I'm going to go over three main things in this lesson: How to greet people in a respectful way, especially people who are older than you or your boss or manager, your lecturer, people that you respect and you want to show respect to.
I'll also show you how we address people respectfully. And how in English our actions are often more important than words when we're communicating and we're showing respect. Greet respectful So how do you do that? You can say: Good morning Good afternoon Good evening All of these expressions are really common, you know them, but just by choosing these greetings, you're instantly sounding more polite and showing more respect and if you're meeting someone that you respect for the first time, you might also add: It's a pleasure to meet you.
Good afternoon, it's a pleasure to meet you. Addressing someone with respect All right let's talk about addressing someone with respect. So we address doctors by saying Dr. Mr Smith or Mrs Smith if it was a married woman. Now some teachers and especially teachers at language schools or even tutors at universities, they may just prefer you to call them by their first name and if you're unsure about what to call them you can politely ask them by saying: How should I address you?
Should I call you Mr Turner? That way, you'll find out exactly what they expect and what they feel comfortable with. Good morning boss! Can I help you with that boss? Respectful phrases 1. Excuse me Excuse me goes a long, long way in English. Sometimes it's got to be done and the most respectful way to do this is to say: Excuse me, I'm sorry to interrupt. Would you mind helping me…? It's also a good way to ask someone to move out of the way. Excuse me, would you mind if I get past?
Oh sure. Please and thank you It might seem simple but please and thank you are essential too. Please pass the salt. Could you please pass me the salt? Could you pass the salt, please? And then of course, when you get the salt, you'd say thank you. Show respect with your actions Now if you remember at the beginning of this lesson I said that for English speakers, the way that you show respect is also based on your actions, not just words. Support Girl Scouts by donating nationally or to your local council, becoming a lifetime member, and advocating for girls.
For Volunteers For Volunteers. Resources for Girl Scout members. Find volunteer, Girl Scout, and family tools and support. Explore badges, activities, and more. While respect should be second nature to us Aretha made darn sure we knew how to spell it and practice it , there seems to be a major deficit of it in our world today.
From mean tweets to cliquish behavior on the playground, respect is plainly overdue for a comeback. The good news is that you can play a big role in starting a respect revolution just by modeling respect for yourself and teaching your girl to follow suit.
And finally, how can your girl get more respect in her life? Talk to her about the word integrity. Someone who has integrity is honest, is true to their word, does the best they can, and owns up to their shortcomings without making excuses, covering it up, or passing the blame onto someone else.
She's more capable than she knows. How to help her tap into her inner strength. But we love anyway because in our differences, in stepping toward others, in listening to them and respecting them for who they are without trying to change them, we come closer to creating the more beautiful world.
The change we so desperately long for in this world is possible, but we have to stop waiting for everybody else to show respect for one another, and start leading by example. A sure way to shut down a conversation before it ever gets started is to express judgment or condescension.
But if you are willing to listen, to genuinely hear the other person, conversations take place. Relationships grow. If your goal is to genuinely show respect to others — even those with whom you disagree — treat each person you encounter with the love and dignity they deserve. Listen to them—not to change their mind, but to learn more about who they are. This will make them feel respected and open more doors to peace than you can imagine. Every human being is valuable, regardless of their opinions or worldview.
Learn to view everyone you encounter through the lens of love, and then look for ways the two of you can connect on a deeper level. Perhaps the only thing you have in common is that you both have the same number of children, or a love for art, or you like a certain sport or food.
As your relationship grows and deepens, you might find you are ready for a more open discussion about your differences and how you each came to believe and live the way you do. With the rise of social media, listening has almost become a lost art.
We hear people speaking, but are we really listening? Or are we just thinking about what we will say next? Stop thinking about your argument or if you agree or not and instead really focus on what the other person is saying.
Pay attention to their emotions and their tone. Instead, stay calm. Genuinely try to understand their position. Even if you never fully agree, at least you will learn something new and make them feel respected. And relationship is built in understanding each other.
