行经一条马路,听到弄口有人在招呼邮递员,用的是一个非常特别、闻所未闻的称呼:邮差师傅。“邮差”是卑称,“差”,旧时指被差遣的人,解放后为尊重劳动者,改称邮递员了;“师傅”则是尊称,尽管现今已不如先前普遍使用,仍不失其尊。两者合而为一,令人不明是尊是卑。这个称谓语出于杜撰,因而显得非常特别。倘要称之为“师傅”也可以,但前面的职务名称得改从今习,呼之“邮递员师傅”,或者泛称“先生”,自亦相宜。 Walking through a road, I heard some people are nostalgic greeting postman, using a very special, unheard of salutation: postman master. “Postman” is a humble name, “bad”. In the old days, it refers to the person who was sent out. After liberation, he respected the laborer and renamed the postman. “Master” is the epitome of the master, and today it is not as detrimental as it has previously been used. The two together into one, it is unknown is respect for humble. This appellation out of the fiction, so it is very special. If you want to call it “master” can also be, but in front of the post title to be changed from now on, call the “postman master”, or generally referred to as “Mr.”, from the appropriate.
