If one casts a vote but a finger much larger than the stars leads to the wrong one being registered (or if one simply has 2nd thoughts) there should be a way to revise (overwrite?) the vote.
hi,
Hope you are keeping well.
You did such a nice job and a very big website I always follow and taking guidelines from your site you really did a great job.
Such fruitful materials.
Entries receive votes that award them from 1 to 5 stars. Apart from that there is no ranking. How could you possibly "rank" USA against NASA against UNHCR?
"Relevant documentation, knowledge, data and lessons learned with respect to river management and river-training (i.r.t. morphodynamic development of rivers in delta’s) will be presented. " Please tell me what do "i.r.t" stand for? Thank's alot.more »
In the context of the example sentence that you included, I'm almost certain that "i.r.t." stands for "in regard to". I've no idea why @acronimous suggested that "i.r.t. stands for
"
Infrared Radiation Thermography", because, as far as I can tell, that would make no logical sense in the context of the example sentence that you included. Moreover, I'm particularly confused as to why his suggested meaning received 3 likes!more »
JBB is a family owned Polish processed meat manufacturer.
I'd say that JBB isn't an acronym or abberivation, it's most likely the initials of the person responsible for its origins.
Are all these abbreviations completely valid? How can a club snadwich with turkey not be a tlub instead of a club? Why is the bacon "under the lettuce"? What hppened to the Union CLub menu of 1889?
I've a Master's Degree in Diplomacy and Security studies as "Master Political scientist for Diplomacy and Security" that's my offiical title given from my university, but I would like to know whether there is an abbreviation for it or not.more »
Hi Miroslav, there's an abbreviation for Master of Diplomatic Studies "MDips", and Masters of Security Studies "MSS", but we couldn't find a common abbreviaton for the combined degree...
Seems like this is true for the Marine Corps, but for the general US army Pv2 does seem to mean Private First Class -- see:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_(rank)#United_States_Army
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/private_first_class
I went to your profile and saw your Dads headstone. He was in the Royal Navy and A/B was his service rank and stands for "Able Seaman".
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Navy_ranks,_rates,_and_uniforms_of_the_18th_and_19th_centuries
Can you help with the funny and confusing abbreviation used in text messages, twitter, snapchat, etc, how do they come about and give me a list them if possible
Suggestion: Extra details that you enter when defining an abbreviation should appear next to results in light gray text. For an example, see my attachment.
I entered "Google" as extra info. It'd be useful to have that next to "Alphebet Inc." in light gray or small text.
Thanks, love this site :)more »
Hey Ryan, appreciate the feedback! This is indeed an interesting idea, that we'll need to consider.
Do note that currently we show the extra details on the term page, e.g.: https://www.abbreviations.com/term/2018738

I've been adding a lot of abbreviations recently and I was wondering if you could make the bot captcha something other than selecting images? It's annoying.
Hey Ryan, thanks for the feedback, and for your great contribution to Abbreviations.com! The CAPTCHA will no longer be needed after 100 approved submissions -- looking at your profile it looks like you're almost there :-)more »
In Bible terminology it usually means "and following", while in technology it could mean Firefox... see all options here: http://www.abbreviations.com/FF
I wish to contribute and update the abbreviation, "O.T." It refers to the chivalric knighthood of the Noble Order of Tara and in gaelic is, "O Tara," and translates as, "Of Tara." See the link provided for more information. Thank you. http://www.fellowshipofisis.com/nobleorderoftara.htmlmore »
