ABBREVIATION | English meaning - Cambridge Dictionary
The language extends simple arithmetic (with addition, subtraction, multiplication and division) by adding user-definable constants (abbreviations) and user-definable unary functions.
Type abbreviations can help simplify the presentation of concrete types, but abstract encodings require type variables and those variables need to appear in the interface.
Because of this, e-mail writers start using abbreviations, omitting subject pronouns and auxiliaries, and decapitalizing the initial letters in sentences or proper nouns.
These examples are from corpora and from sources on the web. Any opinions in the examples do not represent the opinion of the Cambridge Dictionary editors or of Cambridge University Press or its licensors.
