See uchi-soto. Whereas teineigo () (polite language) is commonly an inflectional system, sonkeigo () (respectful language) and kenjōgo () (humble language) often employ many special honorific and humble alternate verbs: iku "go" becomes ikimasu in polite form, but is replaced by irassharu in honorific speech and ukagau or mairu in humble speech. The difference between honorific and humble speech is particularly pronounced in the Japanese language. Humble language is used to talk about oneself or one's own group (company, family) whilst honorific language is mostly used when describing the interlocutor and their group.

Many of the classical constructs are also occasionally employed by contemporary speakers to convey formality, humility, politeness or respect. Usage of classical Chinese honorifics is also found frequently in contemporary Chinese literature and television or cinematic productions that are set in the historical periods. Honorific language in Chinese is achieved by using honorific or beautifying alternatives, prefixing or suffixing a word with a polite complement, or by dropping casual-sounding words. In general, language referring to oneself exhibits self-deprecating humbleness - called ("humble language"), while language referring to others shows approval and respect - called ("respectful language").

Different languages distinguish pronoun uses in different ways. Even within languages, there are differences between groups (older people and people of higher status tending both to use and to expect more respectful language) and between various aspects of one language. For example, in Dutch, the V form is slowly falling into disuse in the plural and so one could sometimes address a group as T form , which clearly expresses the plural when one would address each member individually as , which has the disadvantage of being ambiguous. In Latin American Spanish, the opposite change has occurred—having lost the T form , Latin Americans address all groups as , even if the group is composed of friends whom they would call or (both T forms).

Honorifics in Japanese, or keigo (敬語), fall under three main categories: sonkeigo (尊敬語), respectful language; kenjōgo (謙譲語),kenjōgo (謙譲語) is more rarely called kensongo (謙遜語), "kenson" being an alternative word for "humility, modesty". humble language (or "modest language"); and teineigo (丁寧語), polite language. Linguistically, the former two are referent honorifics, used for someone being talked about, and the last is an addressee honorific, used for someone being talked to. Sometimes two more categories are also used, for a total of five categories: teichōgo (丁重語) "courteous language" and bikago (美化語), "word beautification", but more often these are included in the above three: teichōgo as a kind of kenjōgo (humble), bikago as a kind of teineigo (polite)—these two other categories use the same forms as the general categories, but are used in different contexts, hence differentiated by some linguists.

" Kirk Hamilton, the editor-in-chief of Kotaku, described the Iron Bull as "a thoughtful, wry killer whose joie de vivre and reckless enthusiasm for danger make him an all-but-essential party member for adventures out in the field". Kate Gray observed that he started off as a witty yet slightly cold Qunari warrior that towers imposingly over the rest of the party companions, but "get to know him through the complex and engaging romance system and you'll discover the heart of a teddy bear underneath all that bravado". His interactions with an Inquisitor who is of Qunari background is praised as interesting by Giant Bomb, noting that "in a game rooted in class and racial warfare, watching Iron Bull criticize your own upbringing roots the game's politicization in surprisingly electric waters". Matt Kane of GLAAD praised the Iron Bull's characterization, noting that "not only will he school the player on using respectful language if they misgender Krem, Bull is also openly bisexual and will end up dating Dorian if the player doesn't pursue either of them for a romance.
