| | Abbreviation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Some two-word abbreviations, like "United Nations", are abbreviated with uppercase letters and periods, and others, like "personal computer" (PC) and "compact disc" (CD), are not; rather, they are typically abbreviated without periods and in uppercase letters. | | | Special Dictionary—large abbreviation, acronym and initialism database with lookup function. | | | Spaces are generally not used between single letter abbreviations of words in the same phrase, so one almost never encounters "U. S.". |

| | Abbreviations in Latin Inscriptions |
| | Abbreviations were identified in the data set using software written expressly for the purpose. | | | Because the algorithm identifies abbreviations solely on the basis of the appearance of parentheses in the source data, misspellings (and variant spellings) "corrected" by an editor are recorded amongst the abbreviations. | | | Once all data files have been parsed, review the abbreviations identified, group and sort them, reconstruct the inscribed letters by removing all parentheses and their content, strip out all sigla except parentheses, and store the resulting data with formatting in HTML files. |

| | TLA - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | TLA is a three-letter abbreviation itself; the term was almost certainly coined with a certain degree of self-referential humor in mind. | | | Since TLA can also stand for "two-letter acronym", it is ambiguous; the abbreviation 3LA or the term trigram can be used instead. | | | In the MS-DOS operating system for personal computers, because only three-letter file extensions (usually denoting the file type) were allowed, many longer abbreviations were shortened to three letters (for example JPEG to JPG, HTML to HTM), and many of these are still used. |

| | Some have suggested that the letters are an abbreviation for the words "Ave Virgo Maria." But it is a very modern mind that suggests this solution, a mind that is accustomed to suspended abbreviations like ASAP, FAQ, and BTW. | | | In our day we use mostly "suspension" abbreviation, that is, whenever possible, to use only the first letters of words. | | | We have demonstrated in the above pages and graphics that the AVM abbreviation, while a source of consternation for modern commentors, is an example of a productive convention of Medieval Latin abbreviation. |

| | Origin Of The Abbreviation I18n For Internationalization |
| | Looking in printed texts, the earliest reference I could find was in the book Soft Landing in Japan, published by American Electronic Association, 1992. | | | (For example, "DBCS" is an acronym for "Double Byte Character Set".) I believe the correct name for this type of abbreviation is numeronym- a number based word. | | | Searching the net, we found uses on-line as early as 1989. |
