I am currently creating a web page. In this web page, I am
going to include a link to a page with translations in various languages
for the following phrase:  SO MANY LANGUAGES, SO LITTLE TIME.  I
would appreciate it if you could tell me how to say this phrase in
your mother tongue or languages you are fluent enough in.  Thank you for
your cooperation.

Subject:  Terminology Question

Is there a term for words like "Mr." and "Dr." besides "title" or "honorific"?
