Why do people add -kun and -san to peoples names in some animes?!


Question: Why do people add -kun and -san to peoples names in some animes!?
Answers:
pretty much what wiki says!. San would be roughly equivalent to Mr!. or Ms!.

Kun would be used to formally address a peer or somebody of lower rank/status!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

san: It basically means Mr!. or Mrs!. You use it for either gender!. (Mr or Mrs!. Eiri-san)
kun: Use this with little kids, particularly little boys!. Same as -chan!. ( Kurosaki-kun)
chan: Use this for children, particularly little girls!. You could get away with using it for girls who are younger than you or maybe the same age!. (Riiko-chan)Www@Enter-QA@Com

There are two main differences, in which -san is the formal and -kun is the informal! -kun can also be used to describe a lover, junior officer, or a male!. It is rarely used to describe females, but some still use it!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

The Japanese use Honorifics when talking !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Those are called Honorifics !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ??????????
















La*Shya !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Www@Enter-QA@Com
