Well! Some positions and
ranks can be used as
prenames in introducing
a person. Here are some
examples:
Prime Ministry……….
Minister………………
President…………….
Director…………………
In a more relaxing
atmosphere, self-
introduction may add
some personal
information of the
introducer, such as
nickname, hometown,
special interests, and
hobbies.
My name is David
Hampton. You can call
me Ning. I come from
Sara Buri. I’m now
working at a branch of
Siam Commercial Bank
in Maha Sarakham. I like
watching and playing
football. When I’m free
from work, I always go
out to play football with
my friends.
The introduction of
oneself and that of
someone are quite
similar in their contents
although the latter
seems to contain
greater information
about the introduced
person than the former.
Self-introduction comes with
first personal pronouns: ‘I’ and
‘we’, whereas the introduction
of someone uses third personal
pronouns: ‘he’, ‘she’, ‘it’, and
‘they’. In addition, while
possessive pronouns: ‘my’ and
‘our’ are used in a self-
introduction, ‘his’, ‘her’, ‘its’
and ‘their’ are used in an
introduction of someone.
