mrs pronunciation
Mrs. is pronounced as "miss-iz" in English, with the "i" in the first syllable sounding like the "i" in "miss" and the second syllable rhyming with "is." It is typically said quickly, almost like "missiz," and the "r" is silent. This pronunciation can vary slightly by accent, but "miss-iz" is the standard in most English-speaking regions.
mr vs mrs
Mr. is a title used before the surname of an adult male, regardless of his marital status, and is the standard abbreviation for "Mister." Mrs. is a title used before the surname of a married woman, derived from "Mistress," and indicates that she is married. The key difference is that Mr. does not reveal marital status, while Mrs. specifically denotes marriage. In modern usage, Ms. is often preferred for women when marital status is unknown or irrelevant, but that's outside the direct comparison of Mr. vs. Mrs.
