What is the proper way to address the Emperor in person？


Is there a proper way to address the Emperor of Japan when meeting in person?
Is he addressed as 天皇 or 天皇陛下?




He is addressed as [陛下]{へいか} ("Your Majesty"). Directly calling him [天皇]{てんのう}
would be rude. Princes and princesses are addressed as [殿下]{でんか} ("Your
Highness").
