Mr is correct or Mr. is correct?

In the United States, we use a period. In the UK, one does not. I have no idea why this is so.An explanation:In British English, a full stop replaces one or more letters that have been omitted from a word. 'Mr' represents the first and last letters of the word 'Mister'. No letters have been omitted after the 'r', so there is no full stop. Similarly there is no full stop after 'Dr' (Doctor) or 'Mrs' (Mistress, popularly altered to Missus). No abbreviation that includes the last letter of the original word should be followed by a full stop. To British eyes, that shows ignorance.Examples of the correct (to British English speakers) use of a final full stop include 'e.g.' (short for 'exempli gratia') and 'i.e.' (short for 'id est'). However, there is a growing tendency to leave out final full stops in abbreviations generally.


Do you need a period after an abbreviation?

Most of the time you do need a period after an abbreviation! Answer It is usual in American English to use a full stop after ALL abbreviations, however, outside the US this is not the case. For instance, Mr and Mrs never take a full stop in British English usage, and often etc doesn't either despite the fact that the "rule" is that when the abbreviation ends in a letter of the original word (as in Mister-Mr) there is ordinarily a full stop (since etc is short for et cetera and the last letter is an "a" not a "c").


Who invented full stop?

Is there a space after Mr and before the first name?

In English Grammar, there should be a full stop/period after 'Mr'. because 'Mr' is shortened form of 'Mister'. After the full stop.period then a space then a capital letter to start the name. e.g. Mister Joseph Smith , in shortened form it is 'Mr. J. Smith.'. Note the stops and the spaces. NB For any word in the English language that is shortened, then the shortened form has a full stop/period after it. e.g. Mrs. (Missis) Dr. (Doctor) Capt. (Captain) No. (Number). # & e.g. 'Exempli Gratia'.


What punctuation follows an abbreviation?

Traditionally, a full stop (also known as a period in the US) follows an abbreviation. However, where UK English is employed, such as the UK, Australia and New Zealand, placing any punctuation after an abbreviation is outmoded, and no longer required. For example, a word such as Dr or Mr has no full stop after it in Australia, but in the US it is still written as Dr. or Mr.
