Honorifics: A Conversation With Luke

Luke's teacher has been out several days this week. He had one substitute Monday and Tuesday, and a different one on Wednesday. (Note: Ms. Jones is not his teacher's real name.)

DH: How was school today?
Luke: Good. I stayed on green again.
DH: Good job! Was Ms. Jones there today?
Luke: No, we had a new teacher, another new teacher.
DH: Not the one from yesterday?
Luke: No, she was new.
DH: Oh, what was her name?
Luke: Um, I don't remember, but it has Miss in it just like Miss Jones.
