Yes there should be a period.
You put a period after all of those in the states, however, the British system requires no period after such abbreviations, Mr Mrs Ms .
Yes there is.
Yes, i.e. Mr. , Mrs.
Yes, Mrs. has a period because it is an abbreviation and mrs is not a word. The same holds true for Mr., Dr., and Ms.
Punctuation after Ms is optional. ======================== I disagree. Punctuation following Mr and Mrs is becoming optional, but I would respectfully submit that it is incorrect to place a period after Ms, because Ms is actually a word and not an abbreviation (as are Mr, for Master, and Mrs, for Mistress).
It is always Mrs. unless she asks you to use Ms.
It is always Mrs. unless she asks you to use Ms.
Ms. is pronounced "Miss" and Mrs. is pronounced "Misses". You pronounce "Ms" as "Miz" and pronounce "Mrs" as "Miss-es"
Ms
no but Mrs doesAnswerIn American usage ONLY does Mrs have a full stop after it. Everywhere else, it usually doesn't (unless the writer is following US practice).
After all titles for example: Mr. Mrs. Dr. Rev. Ms.,etc.
'Mrs' indicates a married woman, 'Ms' does not indicate marital status.
