1An honorific/polite/humble prefix attached to words to show respect, politeness, or warmth — most commonly attached to kun-yomi (native-Japanese-reading) words: お茶, お名前, お元気, お祝い, お父さん. For on-yomi (Sino-Japanese) words, ご is used instead. The reading おん is a more formal/literary variant that survives mainly in fixed expressions like 御中 (used on formal envelopes) and 御礼. The prefix is almost always written in kana today, though the kanji 御 appears in formal documents.
