Dogfennaeth nodyn[gweld] [golygu] [hanes] [puro]

{{abbr}} is used to define an abbreviation or acronym by creating a tooltip that is displayed on mouse-over. The template uses the HTML <abbr> element and is supported by most browsers.

Usage

{{abbr}} takes two unnamed parameters, in order:

short form: shows as text
long form: shows as the tooltip

Named parameters:

IPA or i: Applies {{IPA}} to fix strings in the International Phonetic Alphabet rendered in Internet Explorer on Windows XP.
unicode or u: applies {{unicode}} to fix strings in Unicode rendered in Internet Explorer on Windows XP.
class: adds an HTML class
id: adds an HTML id

Examples

Markup	Renders as

When hovering over the text "MSLP" then something like Mean Sea Level Pressure will appear as a tooltip in most browsers. Popular screen readers, used by visually impaired readers, display the long form in a different way.
