Let alone the fact, that even if it *is* your lord the one you're talking
to, saying continuously {joHwI'} gives off a feeling of ass-kissing.
I don't know if in the examples posted by voragh, the rationale behind the
{joHwI'} is to show respect, but if this is indeed the case, then again
this would be a wrong way to show respect.
You can both respect someone, *and* not kiss his ass.
