Etymology: Shortened < manuscript n. (as a graphic abbreviation, although now frequently with corresponding spoken realization /ˌɛmˈɛs/; compare also humorous use in verse in quots. 1818 at sense 1 and 1821 at sense 1), after similar use of MS (plural MSS) in post-classical Latin from late 16th cent. or earlier as graphic abbreviation for both manuscriptus (adjective) and manuscriptum (noun). Compare also MSS as graphic abbreviation for the plural of the corresponding noun in Italian from 1587.The forms MSS in quot. 1699² at sense 1 and MSS. in quot. 1798 at sense 1 follow practice in post-classical Latin when the graphic abbreviation represents manuscriptus modifying a plural noun.

1. A manuscript. Frequently attributive.

1901 Springfield (Mass.) Sunday Republican 10 Nov. 4/5 The abbreviation ‘Ms.’ is simple, it is easy to write, and the person concerned can translate it properly according to circumstances. For oral use it might be rendered as ‘Mizz’, which would be a close parallel to the practice long universal in many bucolic regions, where a slurred Mis' does duty for Miss and Mrs. alike.
