As a consequence of a different discussion, I realized this:
Are abbreviations "proper" words?
(I use the broad meaning for abbreviation, not the strictest meaning)
E.g.:
- C.I.A.
- abbr.
- Prof.
- Dr.
- ...
Note: of course, the word "abbreviation" in itself is a proper word.
Very related question: How do we define "proper" words?
