Topic

What does acronym stands for?
How it is used?



Explanation

HTML<acronym> Tag

Acronym refers to "what does it stand for"
An acronym as a word (as NATO, radar, or snafu) formed from the initial letter or letters of each of some specific terms. The title inside the tag gives the full abbreviation of the word. An acronym can be a abbreviation but not all abbreviation can be an acronym.

Example Code:

<acronym title="Cascading Style Sheets">CSS</acronym>
<acronym title="Hyper Text Markup Language">
HTML</acronym>
<acronym title="World Wide Web">
WWW</acronym>


Result:

CSS - stands for Cascading Style Sheets

HTML - stands for Hyper Text Markup Language

WWW - stands for World Wide Web

Some abbreviations can have unexpected pronunciations, such as being pronounced as a word rather than letter-by-letter. Contrary to what some sources say, acronyms do not have to be pronounceable words. For example CBI is spelled out when spoken, whereas ISRO is pronounced like single word.
