Imagine you're 凯伦李 (Kǎilún Lǐ).

Respond to Zheng Zhu's self introduction.

Let's try one more.

When speaking with elders or people of higher social status, it's recommended to use 您 (nín), the honorific term for "you" instead of 你.

您. "You" in honorific speech. 您 (enunciated). 您.

So to sound more respectful, Zheng Zhu, who is younger than Mark, could say,

您好。我叫朱正。很高兴认识您。

This is the end of this lesson.
