Nota d'usoL'appellativo corretto da utilizzare per rivolgersi educatamente a una donna che non si conosce è madam, non lady: Excuse me, madam, mi scusi, signora (non Excuse me, lady, che è considerato impertinente). Quando invece si vuole indicare in modo formale una donna, si usa il sostantivo lady: The lady at table 5, la signora al tavolo 5. -
