Khi nhắc bạn Thủy với bạn Huyền, tôi có thể dùng “chị”.\n“Huyền ơi, em nhớ qua nhà chị Thủy lấy chìa khóa nhé!”\nÝ tôi là “Thủy: chị của em”. Mặc dù Thủy là em của tôi (năm nay tôi 32 tuổi), nhưng khi nhắc Thủy trong câu trên tôi sẽ “nói hộ” Huyền. Đơn giản phải không? Khi nhắc người B trong lúc nói chuyện với người A thì mình có thể dùng đại từ xưng hô nói hộ người A.\nLet's say I have a 30-year-old friend named Thuỷ. She and I share a 25-year-old friend named Huyền. When I talk about Thuỷ to Huyền, I can use chị.\n\"Huyền, don't forget to go get the keys at chị Thuỷ's!\"\nWhat I mean is \"Thuỷ is your chị.\" Even though Thuỷ is actually my em (I'm 32), when I talk about her I have to use what Huyền would use. Simple right? When you talk about B to A, you can use the pronoun A would use.]",
