Addressing and referring to Splinter

*Scandia* · 05-27-2007, 06:18 AM

Is there a rule or at least pattern on how the Turtles address or refer to Splinter given the circumstance?

I would assume they would call him "sensei" when training or in battle, "father" when at home, and just plain "Master Splinter" in other circumstances.

But it almost seems random how they address him in all the various universes.

They only refer to him as solely "Splinter" when talking about him while he's not there. Which I understand due to the respect and formality.

Any specifics I may have missed?
