Careful with taking what I [[Talk:Honorific|said]] as about [[honorific]]s and [[title]]s as gospel. My point-of-view is that of a linguist who has written grammatical parsers relating to names, so I had to place [[Sir]], President and HRH in separate boxes. The reason I mentioned common usage was that I don't think that the average Joe Blow will think of them from a grammatical angle like me. So I suspect a bit more research is required to see what the royal families themselves call them. - [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]] 09:49, 9 Nov 2004 (EST) |
