{{abbr}} is used to define an abbreviation or acronym by creating a tooltip that is displayed on mouse-over. The template uses the HTML <abbr> element and is supported by most browsers.

Usage

{{abbr}} takes two unnamed parameters, in order:

  • short form: shows as text
  • long form: shows as the tooltip

Named parameters:

  • IPA or i: Applies {{IPA}} to fix strings in the International Phonetic Alphabet rendered in Internet Explorer on Windows XP.
  • unicode or u: applies {{unicode}} to fix strings in Unicode rendered in Internet Explorer on Windows XP.
  • class: adds an HTML class
  • id: adds an HTML id

Examples

Markup Renders as
{{abbr|MSLP|Mean Sea Level Pressure}}
MSLP

When hovering over the text "MSLP" then something like Mean Sea Level Pressure will appear as a tooltip in most browsers. Popular screen readers, used by visually impaired readers, display the long form in a different way.

Markup Renders as
{{abbr|pȅći • пе̏ћи|to say}}
pȅći • пе̏ћи
{{abbr|pȅći • пе̏ћи|to say|unicode}}
pȅći • пе̏ћи
Markup Renders as
{{abbr|UK|United Kingdom|class=country-name|id=foobar}}
UK
