23. When do we use the –san, -chan, etc?

These are suffixes added to the names of the persons to show politeness.

-chan = when your student is a kid or younger than you

-san = means Mister or Miss; used for both males and females, to people same age as you or older

-sensei = means Teacher; your students may call you this

Remember: Never address yourself with a –san or –sensei. That’s impolite.
