i love the term "lalla moulati/لالّة مولاتي" ( my lady ) because it's a title that's used for princesses/nobility/saints, but it's also used as a normal extra polite honorific-- & it literally means "my owner"
#the male/masculine equivalent is “sidi moulay” but it's not the same like moulat[i] is a regular word like moulat lmech-> cat's owner#but moulay is archaic & it's only ever used for nobility & saints so sidi moulay is only used like ironically#just “moulaya” is my [male] owner#that sounds more regular/less stilted#see it's not the same...#i also like the word anisa which just means lady/miss & nothing else but it's tainted by creepy catcallers -_- it's my fav though#yes i like honorifics for myself* no i will never use them for other people even if you had an aids filled syringe pointed at me#i do call people miss/lady though it's my fav for everyone ^_^_^#it's not even a matter of principle it's just that i won't remember & i don't have a habit of addressing people by anything other than#their name or the one i made up for them <- that one godkin carrd page#*well i only like specific ones like the two i just listed i hate the family ones the most like being called “sister” or “aunt” NO i am not#( i'm okay with being called daughter because it's like a green flag of safety like oh this old man doesn't want to fuck me whew )#that's why my mom & i have made up words we use instead even for “mom” & “dad” she uses her words i use my words#she's the one who bestowed me with the gift of wordsmithing.........
