Oh too much foreign books, so I learn foreign things. Liking this interrogation, am I wanted for committing espionage ma'am?

Not at all, dear boy. How could I possibly have suspicious thoughts about someone who adresses me as a Queen!

Another thread going delightfully off-topic!  Love it!

If he joins Manure we should chant 'boring boring Utd' at them when we play them.

Roman should never hire him again. I am sorry, but the price that we're paying for his performances is just not worth it. One title and one COC in three seasons don't make up for the disastrous image that he built around the club. We need some decency at last. I'd rather have Pellegrini than him again. 

Dont think we need to worry about his antics here again..

Is the ma'am you are using a (forgive me for this)
mam, marm or the american maahhhhhhhm, 
because each of these pronunciations to me represent different levels of respect. 

Zola tried turning this back into a Jose thread thought i would bring it back off topic.

Jose would say Senhora.

Please expand on this fascinating piece of information.

 

What features does a woman have which result in the three different levels of respect?

Like most my initial feeling is "never going to happen"

 

That said... Crazier things have happened at Chelsea (like hiring back a second time for example!), and as stated by a few, if we are going to go through a complete REBUILD of the squad, then why not!! Him and Roman would need to go on a long weekend somewhere to resolve their issues and the backroom staff would need a reshuffle,. but it COULD be possible.

 

Jose = Manager

Drogba = Assistant

JT = Player/Coach

Eva = Team Doctor

 

Hehehe, That would be EPIC!

The first is a simple but polite greeting similar to a miss, mrs or sir.

Then marm which to me is a greeting used to a women that is a higher up (or just high ranking), and is meant in a very respectful manner, acknowledging her on her superiority.

And then the american maahhhhrm is just a general greeting.

At least this is just my view and I am sure in america there are more than just the one type of ma'am than the one I am expressing.

Also these levels of respect should not be garnered by a woman's features. Or at least we should have grown passed that by now. 

    

All women should be respected equally, as long as they get the washing up done, have tea ready and massage my feet. Otherwise there would be a problem......

You say ma'am to MEN???

No he said "similar to a miss, mrs or sir" you numpty!

 

So saying "good morning ma'am" (to a woman) is similar to saying "good morning sir" (to a man)

We have madam, as in 'may I take your order madam...' and Cynthia Payne.

Not at my best in the morning!  My brain wakes up later than my body!

Agree!  Here only obsequious shopkeepers use these terms.  And the only customers who use them are Cynthia Payne's!
