Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
Sister Communities:
-
/c/TenForward@lemmy.world - Star Trek chat, memes and shitposts

It's like title and first name, right? Like the way English speakers will say "uncle John" you would call your grandmother "grandma $firstname"?
Pretty much just the title. You wouldn't use the name of an elder or superior.
Edit: I'm speaking directly of Korean. I think your comment was related to Asia in general and I didn't follow the response lines correctly.
Oh ok. Thanks for informing me.
