title: Abbreviations Extension
Abbreviations
=============
Summary
-------
The Abbreviations extension adds the ability to define abbreviations.
Specifically, any defined abbreviation is wrapped in an `<abbr>` tag.
The Abbreviations extension is included in the standard Markdown library.
Syntax
------
Abbreviations are defined using the syntax established in
[PHP Markdown Extra][php].
[php]: http://www.michelf.com/projects/php-markdown/extra/#abbr
Thus, the following text (taken from the above referenced PHP documentation):
```md
The HTML specification
is maintained by the W3C.
*[HTML]: Hyper Text Markup Language
*[W3C]: World Wide Web Consortium
```
will be rendered as:
```html
<p>The <abbr title="Hyper Text Markup Language">HTML</abbr> specification
is maintained by the <abbr title="World Wide Web Consortium">W3C</abbr>.</p>
```
Usage
-----
See [Extensions](index.md) for general extension usage. Use `abbr` as the name
of the extension.
This extension does not accept any special configuration options.
A trivial example:
```python
markdown.markdown(some_text, extensions=['abbr'])
```
