Spacing after Mr./Mrs./Ms.? [closed]

Should I put a space after Mr./Mrs./Ms.?

In other words, should it be "Mr.Jones" or "Mr. Jones?"


Solution 1:

Yes.

"Mrs." and "Jones" are separate words so a space must be placed between them.

It may be worth noting that in Commonwealth English, no full-stop is included for abbreviations that consist of the first and last letters of a word, e.g. the American English "Dr. Jones" would be rendered "Dr Jones".

Solution 2:

Yes of course you should give a space after these words. These are just like any other word and we should treat them like regular words. We always put spaces between two words.
