madelle : Lorsqu'on ne connaît pas l'état civil d'une femme, on emploie Madame, de préférence à Mademoiselle. Les termes tels que «Madelle» sont à déconseiller car leur usage n'est pas répandu. 3, record 2, French, - madame
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 2 OBS
Mad. : Abréviation de «Madelle». Elle origine de France, mais ses chances de s'implanter au Québec sont handicapées par le sens du terme «mad» en anglais. 4, record 2, French, - madame
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 3 OBS
Dans un texte entièrement en majuscules, on abrège le mot «madame» en conservant l'abréviation habituelle. Il importe de surélever les deux dernières lettres et de les mettre en majuscules ou de préférence en petites capitales. 5, record 2, French, - madame
