Ha ha! I imagine you know each other well, Lydia. I was just reminded of the mass at Los Arcos where the priest invites all the pilgrims down after the mass to get a prayer card. I just said 'Gracias Padre' not knowing what else to say and I'm sure it didn't cause offence (as the term is used in the US army etc), but I wasn't sure if it was correct.Lydia Gillen said:Not too sure what is expected in Spain.
Here I tend to address my parish priest as Richard, except when I am having a row with him and then I say "With respect Father"
Gosh! That's a new one on me. Is it written and/or spoken? I Imagine it would be an abbreviation of Senora.sulu said:Just to confuse matterscan anyone enlighten me as to the use of 'Sor'? As in Sor Angelica!

tyrrek said:I speak reasonable Spanish, but don't know how to address priests/nuns/monks directly. Do you say, for example, 'Hola Padre/Hermana/Hermano' as you would in English?
