Dear teachers,
I have problem understanding grammar in the following sentence:
Many younger people assume that Ms. is a title for unmarried women too old to use Miss.
Does it mean:
Younger people don't like the title Ms. because it is too old and they prefer to use Miss.
Shouldn't it be "too old to use"? I mean the word "Miss " should not be included in the sentence. Is that right?
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Thank you in advance.
