PS (Postscript)

• Meaning: PS stands for Postscript, which means “written after.”

  I hope you’re doing well!

DS (Deinde Scriptum)

• Meaning: DS stands for Deinde Scriptum, meaning “written after that.”
• Use: It’s used for a second extra note after a PS, though it’s much less common today.

  Hi [Name],
  I hope you’re doing well!

  PS: Don’t forget to bring your documents for the meeting.
