How do you pronounce each one of them, please?

Re: Mrs\Miss\Ms
Mrs- sounds the same as misses.
Ms- Americans tend to say 'miz' and British 'muz'.

The be all end all answer: Ms. = Miss (unmarried, or general use) Mrs. = Misses (married) Mz. = Miz (divorced/widowed) Though it's very rare I ever hear "miz" anymore in that context.

Ms is great so that as a woman you do not have to define yourself as married or unmarried. You leave them guessing:))
