Do you really want to know the meaning?
or could you handle what it really is saying?

married European woman, or did he mean me? (lol!)

Where do I learn everything, Maddie? Am I not the Devourer of Books? Does not memsahib mean "lady" in India? The other meaning given by Paws was more because the servants were calling the married European woman they served "Lady" as well, and in books I have read, it also applies to unmarried women with servants; so it just showed respect, like saying Madam or Miss, see? And all would agree that our Maddie is a true Lady when a Dragon defends her, correct?!

I was so pleasantly surprisedOriginally Posted by Pendragon
It does mean a Lady
Actually Sahib means Sir or used when addressing someone with respect, and memsahib is also Maam / Madam of the Sahib, people couldnt say Maam / Madam properly and it became mem
Now can we rest the case and not call the CIA for further investigation?
CIA here and at your service, what can i do for you mam?

Can you find out all the hiding cockroaches and do something about these creepy insects?
I think I'd call Orkin for those cockroaches... the CIA has enough bugs in it already, I believe?
And just why were you surprised, memsahib? I read a lot, and Richard Wentworth, The Spider, has a giant Sikh as a servant, very deadly with knives, very respectful in language, so I pick up words here and there and become certain of their meanings, no?

Can I type "ewww" even more emphatically?
