Perguntas frequentes
Q: O que é uma abreviação?
A: Uma abreviação é uma forma reduzida de uma palavra ou frase. Acrônimos (como NASA) são um tipo de abreviação em que as letras iniciais de uma frase formam uma nova palavra pronunciada como uma só palavra.
Q: Qual é a diferença entre uma abreviação e um acrônimo?
A: Uma abreviação é qualquer forma reduzida (p. ex., "etc." por "et cetera"), enquanto um acrônimo usa especificamente as primeiras letras de cada palavra e é pronunciado como uma palavra (p. ex., NASA, UNESCO).
