| Ilustrísimo señor secretario general Mr / Madam Secretary Explanation: Honorifics like 'Excellency' are suitable for the Secratary General of an organisation like the United Nations but they are too high-flown for the Secretary of a university. Spanish administrations cling to these old-fashioned titles. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 6 hrs 56 mins (2005-06-15 22:36:51 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- For instance the president of my university is called Magnífico Rector. |
