Grammar Guru: Honorifics

When talking about work in Japanese, it’s important to use the appropriate honorifics to show respect. For example, adding さん (san) after someone’s name is a common way to address someone politely in a work setting. Always keep in mind the level of formality based on your relationship with the person.
