Honorific Prefixes Exercises For Japanese Grammar

Grammar guide for structuring language patternsĀ 

Honorific prefixes are an essential part of Japanese grammar, as they are used to show respect and politeness when addressing or referring to someone. They are particularly vital in formal settings, business environments, and when speaking to someone older or of higher social status. Honorific prefixes in Japanese often attach to the beginning of a person’s name or title. The most common honorific prefixes are “o” (お) and “go” (恔), which are used in various ways to show respect.
