The short form of PS commonly used in a letter stands for 'post script'. It is a message that is appended at the last part of a letter following the writer's signature. The term could also refer to additional information which is appended to a manuscript.
The term has its roots in the Medieval Latin *postscriptum; coming from the neuter past participle of the Latin term postscribere, meaning to write after. It is thus a break up of post-, meaning post plus scrbere, meaning to write.
Arguably the most widespread postscript that is observed in love letters would be "P.S. I love you!" The expression is found as a title of at least two well-known songs, one by The Beatles and one by Rosemary Clooney. Another abbreviation which has gained popularity is P.P.S. meaning "Post-postscript". It allows one to add additional thoughts even after the initial postscript.
