There are other, more minor and uncommon ones used in DragonBall here and there, but those are the basic ones you asked about, at least. Anime Conji or AC, is the SPJA’s spring convention held in San Diego at the Sheraton Hotel & Marina. "King Kai," a decent and fitting translation, IMHO), "Saichoro-sama" ( "Great Elder," a great translation), and so on. Welcome everyone to Anime Conji 2012 Take a tour of Day 1 of this event, and check out what we saw From cosplayers to the exhibition hall to Adventure Time. There's "Kami-sama," "Kaio-sama" ( a.k.a. DragonBall has this used fairly often, what with all the deities and wise old masters floating around.The equivalent of "sir" or "lord" someone or other. It's a formal honorific, used to address someone of a higher ranking or social standing. "- Sama" - On the opposite side of the spectrum from -kun and -chan, we have -sama. Oh, and Chi-Chi uses "Gohan-chan," at least early in the series. Only example I can think of from DragonBall is Grank Kaio using "-chan" with Goku and Paikuhan.Naruto taunting Sasuke during one of their fights by calling him "Sasuke-chan"). It can be used as an insult in certain situations, too ( i.e. including New York Comic Con, San Diego Comic Con, Katuscon, Anime Expo, Sakuracon, Pacific Media Expo, Anime Conji, Comikaze Anime on Display, Otakon. It can also be used to address some of a much lower standing or rank than you. In a friendly manner, it's usually used to refer to or between girls. [iDragonBall examples would be of Bulma calling Goku "Son-kun," and Goten using it with Trunks.It's usually used between friends, and then usually between boys, but it can also be used as a general way of adressing someone on a lower rank or standing than you, in a casual manner. Piccolo."ĮDIT: "-Sa," as used by Chi-Chi when addressing Goku, is actually an example of the hick accent that the two of them use. The most famous use of it in DragonBall is Gohan's addressing Piccolo with "Piccolo-san," which FUNimation well-translated into "Mr. Anime Conji Status: Active: Genre: Anime, Manga: Venue: San Diego Marriott Mission Valley: Location(s) San Diego, California: Country: United States: Inaugurated: 2010: Organized by: San Diego Speculative Fiction Society, Inc.Unless someone is of obviously higher rank or social standing than you, then "-san" is usually appropriate, as it's slightly on the formal side, at least enough to be safe. This is the basic, all-purpose "Mr." or "Mrs," from what I understand. So on to specifics, and their uses in DragonBall. To NOT use an honorific when addressing someone requires a great, extremely close, mutual intimacy with that person, and to not use it can be, and usually is, seen as an insult. They're the equivalents of saying things such as "Mr" or "Mrs" or "sir" in English along with a person's name, except they hold a great deal more significance in terms of manners and custom in Japan. What these things are, are title honorifics. I'm testing my own knowledge just as much as I am informing Drabaz, so I don't and won't mind being corrected, if need be. Well, here's my chance to explain honorifics.
