Once upon a time, it was impossible to find out marital status on a social network or on someone’s personal page. Men could only guess whether the girl was married or not, or maybe just ask directly. In different countries, unmarried girls differed from their opposing outfits, and in particular with headgear. In Western European countries, the girls did not differ from each other, so you could only find out if she was Miss or Mrs. by asking her herself.
Differences
Let's try to figure it out. What is the difference between miss and mrs? And the fact that the appeal of “miss” plus the name of the girl indicated that the girl was not married. Sometimes when they met, the ladies themselves introduced themselves, thereby showing their unmarried position. Unlike the "Mrs.", this was exclusively addressed to married ladies. So it was accepted and considered very polite. In Russia, this was not the case, the “young lady” was used to refer to the female sex, but it was unclear, because it could apply to both a married maiden and not.
Being in a foreign country, your attitude to strangers is very important. The main thing here is to choose the right politeness formula, of course, if you want to get answers to your questions and not offend a person. And so that you are not showered with sidelong glances, try to remember how to properly address the delicate English female, miss or Mrs. By the way, in England it became an exception that teachers and teachers were called only "miss." This situation was adopted only in order to preserve traditions, since earlier only unmarried girls were employed in schools.
Miss or mrs
The etiquette of English-speaking countries required the observance of clear rules for addressing women. “Miss” and “Mrs.” are an expression of respect for a lady. As a rule, the appeal "Mrs." was used in combination with the name of the woman herself and the name of her husband. According to some scholars studying English, such a separation of concepts occurred only in the seventeenth century.
When a woman becomes a widow or divorces her husband, she retains the right to be called Mrs. and bear only her husband's surname. But today, these rules have become softer. And the divorced woman can take her maiden name, but remain Mrs.
Lady
Well, so we figured out the "Mrs." and "Miss." “Lady” is also a kind of appeal. But it is applied to women who have a title and a high position in society, and also have exquisite manners and an elegant look. This appeal is also used in combination with the name of the lady. A lady always behaves tactfully, correctly, she is not too talkative. He will never insult and humiliate the dignity of another person. The lady drives men crazy without much effort, and when she refuses to courts, the gentlemen remain her slaves forever. This appeal corresponds to the ranks of men “sir”, “lord” and “gentleman”.
Conclusion
So, the appeal of "miss" and "Mrs." is an expression of feelings of respect for the fair sex. Because a woman remains beautiful and attractive to men, regardless of whether she is married or not.
Now you know how to contact this or that girl. You can use either miss or missus - depending on her status.
