敬茶时,该怎样称呼?
敬茶时,新人会用家中的亲属称谓称呼长辈。华语、方言或平日惯用的叫法,都可能出现在同一场婚礼里。对另一半来说,这也是慢慢认清家庭关系的时刻。一个平时听过的名字,终于和面前的人对上;一声叫出口的称呼,也让原本有些陌生的见面亲近了起来。

For a partner, this can be a moment of connecting names with people and understanding relationships. A name heard in earlier conversations finally belongs to someone sitting in front of them.
