sir and mam usage
hey another idiotic question here...
could i call some one with sir/mam before their name, (exp. sir james or mam jess)?
or i'd rather call them mr and ms before their name?
if your answer is 'no', what about sir alex ferguson, or sir paul mccartney? is it ok because is it a title?
