mrs meaning woman
Mrs. is a title in English, abbreviated from "Mistress," and is traditionally used to address or refer to a married woman. It specifically indicates marital status rather than simply meaning "woman" in general, distinguishing it from titles like "Miss" for an unmarried woman or "Ms." for a woman whose marital status is unknown or irrelevant. In modern usage, some women choose to use "Mrs." regardless of marriage, but its primary historical and conventional meaning relates to a woman's married state.
