I sawi tum chu “Kan (male) teacher hovin kan sawiho chiam tawh a…” tihna anih hmel.
From: Wikipedia” Sir is an honorific used as a title (see Knight), or as a courtesy title to address a man without using his given or family name in most English speaking cultures. It is often used in formal correspondence (Dear Sir, Right Reverend Sir).
The term was once reserved for use only towards equals, one of superior rank or status, such as an educator or commanding officer, an elder (especially by a minor), or as a form of address from a merchant to a customer

The term “mother tongue” should not be interpreted to mean that it is the language of one’s mother. In some paternal societies, the wife moves in with the husband and thus may have a different first language, or dialect, than the local language of the husband. Yet their children usually only speak their local language. Only a few will learn to speak their mothers’ languages like natives. Mother in this context probably originated from the definition of mother as source, or origin; as in mother-country or -land.
