Description

the titles Miss and Mrs, because they are always followed by the family name of a father or husband, are historical reminders of a time when women were regarded as the responsibility, or indeed the property , of their fatherland husbands.

Is women's marital status marked in other languages? If so, how? It's important to examine language you know well or to have a consultant who speaks that language natively. Do people try to avoid title and surname conventions when they get married? How can they do this with their language?

One resource might be wedding announcements in newspapers or coverage of celebrity sam-sex partners to gather the data here. How might labels for these new types of partnerships affect the language system?

as Mademoiselle. All official forms contain these three boxes through which women can identify
their marital status. All men are addressed with the same title in French regardless of their
marital status while women have to mark their marital status similarly to the English language
(Coates, 2015). This distincti...
