Words are costlier medicines, they can cure anger, disappointment, etc... and can make a person feel comfortable.
Will you ask,'Sir, 2 tickets to anna university?' or 'anna 2 tickets to anna university'.
Of course, there was no harm in calling our conductor as Sir. But we choose anna
right?....yes
When your foot has mistakenly touched the legs of a 65+ aged lady in a crowd for the second time in a bus. We will say sorry to her. Things will go normally if she/he was in normal mode else they will spoil our mood. So rather than just saying sorry, we could say 'Sorry Patti with smiling lips and pleasing eyes'. Calling the person Patti or thatha or Iyya depends on the situation. Where ever we move we should spread our positive energy around us.
The same situation holds good for 42+ age persons too, there we could go for calling them Uncle or Aunty or Sir. Sometimes if they were closer to you in some way, we could call them Appa or Amma. I am sure that it will make all of us feel comfortable about it.
When we want a person who is below our age to do a job for us. We can call them
by their name or nickname. Research confirms, people love to hear their name often. If there is a significant difference in age, we could call them kannu or kanna. “kanna nalliku pannalam da”. In another way, we can call them as Thambi or thangachi. To have a touch with elder one's we can go for bro or Sis or anna or akka. You are calling your dad as 'naina', and if someone laughs, you don't need to change your style. Calling in your own style won't degrade you, rather you are creating a new brand in your name in others heart.
