Japanese honorifics are words used to show respect. They are often added after someone's name. For example, "-san" is the most common honorific and is added to someone's name to show respect. "-san" is often used when addressing someone you do not know, or when you are being polite. Other common honorifics include "-sama" which is often used when addressing someone of higher status or with great respect, and "-kun" which is often used to address someone who is younger or of lower status.
