For example: "This classmate is a good comrade of mine, and we often hang out together." ”
Second, Miss. The term "Miss" was originally an honorific title for young women, but now it is synonymous with women in special professions.

3. Godfather. The term "godfather" originally referred to the father-in-law, and was an honorific title for the father.

For example: "This godfather is really powerful, and he has a lot of companies under him." ”
Fourth, green tea. The term "green tea" originates from the internet and is a homonym for the word green tea.
