Language Note: Honorific Titles in Chinese

In Chinese culture, it is common to address teachers with honorific titles. For example, instead of just saying ‘teacher,’ you would use 老师 (lǎoshī) which translates to ‘teacher’ but conveys respect. Using the appropriate honorifics is important in showing respect in the classroom setting.
