I called a Delta "soror" at one point after I crossed and she didn't mind too much, but when an AKA on my campus found out, she nearly had my head. Now I just say "hey you!" to whoever and give them a hug. I learn quick.

Definitely. I've been to the Sister II Sister Sorority Luncheon in Atlanta, and I heard members of ABC call members of XYZ "soror". Even though we were at a very sisterly event, it was still weird for me. I can speak to a friend in XYZ and say, "I met one of
your sorors," but it's still difficult to connect the idea of calling someone "soror" if she is a sorority other than Sigma Gamma Rho.
I know plenty of Southeastern sorors of various ages who say "saw-rah" because we are familiar with one another, and it rolls off the tongue so easily. I strictly enunciate "soror" in a formal/business setting, but I wouldn't dare correct a "seasoned soror". LOL
