Miss和Ms的區(qū)別和用法
    今天我們要學(xué)習(xí)的是兩個(gè)女性稱謂Miss和Ms的區(qū)別和用法。
    While some Americans still use the title Miss for an unmarried woman, it is becoming rare in the United States, unless the speaker is referring to a very young girl or a beauty queen, e.g. Miss America 1990. Nowadays, the more politically correct title Ms is preferred for females in their late teens or older.
    雖然有些美國人仍然用Miss來稱呼未婚女性,但是這種說法實(shí)際上已經(jīng)越來越少見了,除非稱呼那些年幼的女孩或者選美冠軍,如Miss America 1990 (1990年度美國小姐)。如今,稱呼18、19或20歲往上年齡的女性,最保險(xiǎn)而且最被廣泛接受的稱呼是Ms(女士)。
