Ms.
Definition
(1) Abbreviation for "manuscript."(2) The title for an adult woman whose married state is unknown, or who happens to prefer "Ms." to denote her independence, individuality or something similar.
Usage: Sometimes, "Ms." as a woman's title isn't followed by a period - because, after all, since it doesn't stand for a longer word, it isn't technically an abbreviation.
