N______N______ or Father N ______ Salutation: Dear Father: Concluding a letter: Respectfully yours in Christ, NN. In personal speech: Father It seems it COULD be "Monsignor", but you'd need more information to know. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monsignor -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs (2012-12-17 06:46:13 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- In the definition, "ant" means "antigament", so I believe the relevant definition is either 2, which would correspond to "Monsignor", or 3, (priest > Reverend/Father) |
