我们每个人都有自己的姓。姓是标志家族系统的称号，姓也成为一种中国传统文化和历史传承。在中国古代很多部落根据自己的地理位置或者职业等，创造了自己的姓。姓也成为一种中国传统文化和历史的传承。在日常生活中，为了表示尊敬，人们对于初识的人常常会问“您贵姓？”。一般人们都会回答“免贵姓.⋯⋯”。
Everyone has their own surname, which connects them to their ancestors and represents the continuation of the family lineage. In ancient China, surnames already came into existence. Many tribes created their own surnames according to their geographical locations or occupations. And thus their surnames became the carrier of traditional Chinese culture and history. In everyday life today, Chinese people also pay a lot of attention to surnames. For example, in order to show respect when meeting someone for the first time, people often say 您贵姓? (what's your honourable surname?). Usually people will respond with 免贵姓…… (My name is.., without nobility).
