English term or phrase: P.S.
Hola:

Me encuentro con varias siglas en un certificado de nacimiento, a saber:

VILL: XXX; P.O: XXX; P.S: XXX, DIST: XXX

Entiendo que VILL es "village" y DIST "distrito", pero no entiendo P.S. ni P.O. He hecho dos preguntas para cumplir con las normas, así que perdonad si léeis esto repetido.

¡Gracias por vuestra ayuda!

As you have stated it is Bangladesh, I believe P.S. is Police Station.

Sevicio Postal= Postal Service


Explanation:
Noun 1. postal service - the system whereby messages are transmitted via the post office; "the mail handles billions of items every day"; "he works for the United States mail service"; "in England they call mail `the post'"
mail service, mail, post
communicating, communication - the activity of communicating; the activity of conveying information; "they could not act without official communication from Moscow"
airpost, airmail - a system of conveying mail by aircraft
snail mail - any mail that is physically delivered by the postal service; "email is much faster than snail mail"
RFD, rural free delivery - free government delivery of mail in outlying country areas

Hay muchísimos anacronismos pero creo que es el que más tiene que ver con el texto.

Espero te ayude.

Asker: Gracias, Marina. Sólo un apunte: "anacronismo" es "Error que consiste en suponer acaecido un hecho antes o después del tiempo en que sucedió". Creo que tú querías decir "acrónimo" ;) Espero que no te moleste la corrección, porque te agradezco muchísimo tu ayuda y seguro que fue la rapidez en contestar la que te hizo equivocarte!
