Once, long ago, learn marital statusit was impossible 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 them in opposite outfits, and in particular with headdresses. In Western European countries, girls didn’t differ from each other in any way; therefore, it was only possible to find out about 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, said that the girl is not married. Sometimes when they met, the ladies themselves presented themselves, thereby showing their unmarried position. Unlike "Mrs.", - so addressed exclusively to married ladies. It was so accepted and considered very polite. This was not the case in Russia, the “young lady” was used to refer to the female sex, but it was not clear, because this could apply to both a married maid and not.
