Shrimati (Sanskrit: श्रीमती, romanized: Śrīmatī), abbreviated Smt., is a widely accepted Indian honorific (akin to Mrs. in English) used when referring to an adult woman in some Indian languages, including Assamese, Bengali, Hindi, Kannada, Tamil, Malayalam, Odia, Sanskrit, Telugu, and Tulu. However, its use is recommended against in an English context as per Oxford rules.
