How to Say ‘Manager Chen’ in Traditional Chinese

陳經理

chén jīng lǐ

[Chén jīnglǐ]

💬 Usage Tip: The family name comes first and the title follows it, the reverse of English: 王老師 "Teacher Wang" works the same way.

🇹🇼 In Taiwan: In Taiwanese offices you address a superior by surname plus title rather than by first name, even if you are on friendly terms.
