[it seems the centaur on the screen has figured out how to use the video function better than last time, fully visible on screen in front of the propped up bracelet... until she bows low, respectful]
Hello! I'm terribly sorry to bother all of you again, but- For those who don't know me, my name is Konoha... I'm a jinba, which some of you call a "centaur"... but I'm not from, um, Greece, or anywhere like that. I'm from Echigo, in Japan.
[straightening back up, her fingers start to twist together a bit anxiously, a bit of a blush barely visible beneath dark skin]
I just wanted to ask... and I know I can only ask, but. My, ah... my husband arrived here just recently, and this place is... I don't think I can really explain in words how overwhelming it is compared to where we come from.
And that's- My parents are human, I've always been around them, but he's mostly been in the deep mountains since he was young, so all these people...
I just want to ask that, if you see him lost, or... upset, somewhere... Could you please contact me? I don't really look at the "posts" on this thing much but I promise I'll always answer calls!
His name is Gonta, and... well, he's the only other jinba here, I'm pretty sure. He's about three or four hands taller than me, with palomino coat and white socks, and he has a patch over one eye... You really, really can't miss him.
I just... I want to keep showing him that humans can be good. Not humans, too! So. I'll be in your debt if you could just... be understanding, if you meet him. And maybe... Not tell him I made this post? Haha... Thank you so much for listening!
[and with another bow... the recording ends.]

Are there any resources for learning this aspect of politeness? Or can it only come from experience?
