For example: In very formal situations, it is polite to use the titles “Sir” or “Ma’am” when you are talking to an older person or someone important. With adults you do not know well, it is correct to use a title with the person’s last name. For example, “Ms. Adams” or“Dr. Snow.” On the other hand, two people who are equal in age or equal in position, or who are meeting in a casual situation, usually use each other’s first names. People in close personal relationships often use nicknames to address each other. For example: Married people, people in romantic relationships, or relatives speaking to children: honey, dear, sweetheart, darling Children to parents: Mom, Mommy, Mama, Dad, Daddy, Papa Children to grandparents: Grandma, Granny, Grammy, Grandpa Friends: pal, buddy, brother, sister, girl d) Expressing Frustration Frustration is what people feel when they cannot get what they want, even after many tries. For example, imagine that your neighbor’s dog wakes you up every night. You complain to your neighbor many times, but the situation does not improve. In this situation you would feel frustrated. The underlined idioms in the following sentences mean that a speaker is frustrated. Notice the grammar in each sentence. My roommate is a total slob! She never cleans up after herself!
