  • Miss is a word for a woman that has not been married.
  • Mrs. is an abbreviation of the word Mistress, used as a title for a woman that is married or widowed.
  • Ms. is a title used for a woman whose marital status is unknown or irrelevant (as in business). The letters Ms. are not an abbreviation of a word, they are an amalgamation drawn from the letters of Miss and Mrs.
