Provide Expansions for Abbreviations

A clear method is available to view the expanded form or full meaning of any abbreviations used in the content.

• An abbreviation like “W3C” is introduced with its expanded form: “World Wide Web Consortium (W3C).”
• A tooltip appears when users hover over an abbreviation like “HTML,” showing “HyperText Markup Language.”
• A dedicated list or glossary page provides definitions for all abbreviations used on the site.
• Screen readers access the expanded form of abbreviations through hidden text or ARIA attributes.

When abbreviations are explained immediately in context or through links to definitions.

• Use tooltips or inline expansions for common abbreviations to keep the content accessible without clutter.
• Include a glossary or a “Terms and Abbreviations” page for more complex or less common abbreviations.

• Verify that every abbreviation on the page has a method for users to view its full meaning.
• Check tooltips or hidden text in the code to ensure they correctly provide expanded forms of abbreviations.
