This category is meant to gather abbreviations (Category:Abbreviations), acronyms (Category:Acronyms), and initialisms (Category:Initialisms) in one place for those who prefer a single list.

Acronyms, initialisms, and contractions are types of abbreviations. Acronyms are pronounced as the "word" they spell (e.g., NATO, pronounced nay-toe). Initialisms are pronounced as the individual letters (e.g., FBI, pronounced eff-bee-eye). The remaining abbreviations sub-category gets all those that fall into neither category (e.g., NY pronounced as New York, or so pronounced significant other). Hybrid abbreviations such as JPEG (pronounced jay-peg) should be put in both Category:Acronyms and Category:Initialisms manually.
