The Japanese expression sensei derives from the Chinese word Xiansheng, which is written with the same characters.
It can also be attached to a man's name to mean "Mr." Prior to the development of the modern vernacular, Xiansheng was used to address teachers of both male and female sexes; however, this has fallen out of widespread usage.
In both Japanese and Chinese, it literally translates into "one who was born prior".

The change I noted last year was that the ming2 was used more and more often in combination with xiansheng, xiaojie and furen.
That is also the way people address each other formally, the equivalent of X xiansheng in the old days.
When people want to be especially deferential, they speak of the person they are addressing in the third person "Wo keyi ti Wang Jiaoshou gaosu ta ma?," a practice equally widespread in Taiwan when I lived there.

She exposed the electric shock torture by male division leader Zhuang Tao, who tortured her "because she refused to read the 'Notice of the Six Restrictions.' " Those division leaders were a little nervous because they did not expect the practitioners to expose their savagery.
Zhang Xiansheng did not say anything but turned around and left quickly.

I just completed a study examining the strategies non-native learners of Chinese are using to while reading the short story Chabuduo Xiansheng.
The results of my study show that intermediate and advanced readers are using predominately bottom-up level strategies while reading the short story.
It is possible that learners are not aware of the range and types of strategies are available to them, or they simple do not know how to use top-down strategies affectively.
