Asian Honorific Novels & Stories

The most powerful man in Middle-East. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ NOTE : Aniki (Informal) This is a nickname for someone who seems ruder or more slang in Japanese dictionaries.

Where the kanji "Ki" refers to something valuable, important and honorable. See you 👋 LOVE ALL❤️

“Keep your hands off him, Keith. You hurt him." "Oh." Keith let go of his grip, and the person immediately greeted him by bowing his body, to which was generally done by Asian people in general as their way of respecting people in high positions. It succeeded to create an awkward feeling inside him. "But I've never heard of it! I will ask Aura for it and scold her!” Keith protested, about to reach for his smartphone, and tried to contact Aura to ask about the whereabouts of the three new people in the house. But before he could do it, Marie's hand prevented Keith from doing it.

Su Yeon shook her head, “No, I wasn’t thinking about it. I wonder, why don’t you use your name if you have one? Gon… it’s a very nice name! Who gave this?” Mr. Secretary aka Gon remembered her past life image and the memory, “Our little one gave me this name, it’s a Japanese word which means a person who is kind, friendly and loyal. Only Master Song knows my name and now you.” Su Yeon commented, “You seem so attached with your little one and her family.” This time, Gon realized that till now, he was referring his Miss as ‘Little one’. In the past life, he always wanted to call her ‘Little one’ just like Crown Prince used to do, but due to the hierarchy and social norms, he refrained himself.

Respect. "My parents... You must wait until they tell you to call them by their names; otherwise, my father is sir. He'll likely assess you as a business acquisition first and a person second. Don't be offended. It's his way." Jin's voice was matter-of-fact, without any trace of resentment. "My mother will probably tell you to call her Eomma, which means mother in Korean.” I blushed. I wouldn’t dare call his mother my mother, even if it was in a completely different language. Besides, I should practice my pronunciation some more or else I may put him in a tight spot.

I shook my head because she was still having trouble pronouncing her other words. “It’s Ate Nica, baby. Not just Nica. You can’t call elders just their names here in the Philippines. You should put “Ate” or “Kuya”, it's sister and brother, or “Tito” and “Tita” before their names, okay?” “Weild,” she commented. “That’s not weird here, baby. It’s a way of respect here. You should know that, okay?” “Hmmkay,” she said politely. I just shook my head.

Thinking that she is just a simple college student who just wants to be a teacher makes it more impossible to believe. “Good evening, Nakamura-sama. How was your trip to Singapore?” Her client, Mr. Nakamura, is one of her first clients during her early weeks working. The Japanese honorific “-sama” is the proper way to address him with high respect. She would constantly be the one to assist his group whenever they come to the club and he already insisted with the management to make her his hostess every time he comes to the club. She appreciated that because he was one of her best clients to accompany.

Sasha thought his heart would burst. “How many times have I told you to call me A-chan?” she asked sweetly. She was referring to the honorific “hime” which meant princess and was slightly less formal than “oujo”. The suffix “chan”, on the other hand, loosely translated to little and was a term of endearment used for children, girls and close friends. “I’m sorry,” he said. “I keep forgetting we were childhood friends. It feels like there’s a huge gulf between now and that time. Anyway, what were you playing?”

~~~~~ When I return, I go straight to the office. “Why are you still working?” I ask, surprised when I find Aysel. “You asked me to find out atleast a few names that Kai noted in his journal so I am doing that. Also, Liam was looking for you,” she says without looking up. “What is with dropping honorifics,” I mutter as I walk inside. “Honorifics?” she retorts. “Alpha Liam, not Liam,” I mutter. “Ah. He said so,” she says, still not looking at me.

This wasn't the kind of bow you gave people out of respect…this was the kind of bow people gave when they were terrified or apologetic. "No, you don't have to do that." I told them quickly, when they didn't raise their head. The stood up straighter, but still refused to meet my eyes. "Who are you?" I asked them. "What are your names?" "We…we are maids, Lady Harmona…just maids." The Asian woman said, her voice trembling slightly. "Look, I think you have the wrong person." I told them in confusion. "My name is Lilac, not Harmona."
