Notes
- An <abbr> element within the <expan> containing the abbreviated form of the word is available but optional. It may be useful when the abbreviation contains additional markers not in the expanded form (cf. Augg and pr. above), but might require additional linking in cases where the abbreviation must be expanded by interpolation (cf. co(n)s(ul))
- When the abbreviated form contains markers not in the expanded form, such as additional letters or punctuation, best practice is to put these in <orig> elements, which the standard stylesheets will omit when rendering the expanded form.
- Abbreviated phrases (e.g., D(is) M(anibus)) should properly be marked-up as a group, as illustrated in the example above, but marking them as single words is not incorrect (see the second example).
