Abstract: We were taught from childhood that children should not talk before older people or interrupt them. Children were in general encouraged not to talk in the presence of the grown-ups. Young people do not address their older relatives by their first names. There are special terms of address for each category of relatives, including older siblings, aunts, uncles, grandparents and so on.
