What about Mr. and Ms. Photography's residence?
How to distinguish the four seemingly very similar words Mr. Mrs. Miss and Ms?
Parts 1 sir
Sir/sir/? m? st? Sir? Sir? m? st? The abbreviation of/is often written as Mr in British English, but it needs to be written as Mr in American English. Mr can be used before a man's surname, first name or position (whether married or not).
Take former US President Barack Obama's as an example:
Mr.+Last name: Mr. Obama
② Mr.+Name: Mr. barack obama
③ Mr.+Position: Mr. President (Mr. President)
It is worth noting that the president of the United States can be called Mr. President no matter whether he is in office or not, and no matter what his achievements are during his term of office.
The plural form of Mr. is Messrs/Messrs/? mes? For example, Mr. Smith, Mr. Brown and Mr. Jones.
Part two, ma 'am.
Ma 'am/Ma 'am/? m? s? Z/ (madam) is often used to address married women. Mrs. followed by surname or first name, etc. But because in Britain and America, women need to take their husbands' surnames after marriage, so the surnames of women here should be husbands' surnames.
For example, barack obama's wife's name was Michelle Robinson before she got married, but she changed it to Michelle Obama after she got married. At this point, we can say:
Mrs.+Last name: Mrs. Obama
② Mrs.+Name: Mrs. Michelle Obama
At this point, the Obamas can be expressed as: Mr. and Mrs. Obama.
Mrs also has the plural form, yes/? Me? d? Ms/, which can be abbreviated as Mmes.
The third part missed
Miss /m? S/ (Miss) is usually used before the surname or first name of an unmarried woman or little girl, and the plural form is Miss. Note that no matter British English or American English, there is no dot after Miss.
Miss Carter, Dr. White can see you now.
Miss Carter, Dr. White wants to see you now.
The fourth part is ms.
Ma 'am/Ma 'am /m? Z/(ms.) can be used before any woman's last name or first name. When you are not sure about the other person's marital status, or the other person is unwilling to disclose his marital status, you can address the other person as a lady, which is the safest female address. Its plural form can be Mss or Mses.
The three appellations of women, Mrs/Miss/Ms, all originate from mistress/? m? str? s/
In addition, these four appellations can also be used to express a person's quality, activities or a typical representative of a place.
How to remember the fifth part?
The three appellations about women are easily confused in sound, form and meaning. How can we remember them?
First of all, the word Mrs contains Mr in form, which can be recorded as being very close to her husband, so the word is married wife.
The word "Miss" means "missing" in the case of m lowercase. The so-called "my fair lady, a gentleman is good." Men miss and pursue unmarried women, so nostalgia can be recorded as unmarried women.
The last Ms is nothing special, so this word can be used to address any woman.
