Hi,
I work as a language editor (copyeditor). I sometimes need to edit novels as well. Here is my doubt that has been nagging me for sometime now. I have typed an arbitrary sentence to present my case:
"Yes, Mr. Andre, I shall look into the matter," George replied.
I would like to know whether such titles as Mr., Ms., Dr., etc., should be expanded or left as such within dialogues.
Thank you.
