'Mr.' or 'Mrs.'
are 'CD' the initials of a person to hide the identity on this forum? In that case p. would be Mr. or Mrs.

Actually the pronoun \'jeho\' shows it is a MR.

If the text given by the asker is a model, then \'p.\' would stand for either Mr. or Mrs. If the letter pairs AB, CD, and EF are just to cover identities of extant entities, then the pronoun \'jeho\', i.e. \'his\' would indicate that behind the letters \'CD\' is a man. :-)

pan CD = Mr. CD
The abbreaviation "p." in front of a Czech male last name means "pan" = Mr. Incorrectly, it could also be used to mean "pani" = Mrs., although the correct abbreviation for "pani" is "pi." (with the vowel length accent over "i"). If this is a sample text with only "p.CD", you won't be able to tell if the last name is male or female. However, in a real-life text, you should be able to tell whether the last name accompanied by "p." is male or female, and whether it thus means Mr. or Mrs.

actually, it's Mr. only....
as the word that follows (jeho) is in masculine form, it would have to be "jeji" for a woman.......sometimes "pi'" (long i) is used as an abbreviation for woman, but it's a bit oldfashioned now...
