<< review queue entry 80624 - submitted by 'cws' >> I think the convention with acronym arrangement, is that when the acronym is popular, the acronym comes first, and the long form is in parenthesis, e.g., 全球位置測定系統 全球位置测定系统 [quan2 qiu2 wei4 zhi4 ce4 ding4 xi4 tong3] /GPS (Global Positioning System)/ 公元前 公元前 [gong1 yuan2 qian2] /BCE (before the Common Era)/BC (before Christ)/ Something not popular enough: 血沉 血沉 [xue4 chen2] /erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR)/ 丁克 丁克 [ding1 ke4] /Dual Income, No Kids (DINK) (loanword)/ This seems popular though, but the acronym is in parenthesis: 虛擬專用網絡 虚拟专用网络 [[xu1ni3 zhuan1yong4 wang3luo4]] /virtual private network (VPN)/ Also, mostly I see `(loanword)` at the beginning, e.g., 柯基 柯基 [[ke1ji1]] /(loanword) corgi/ 極客 极客 [ji2 ke4] /(loanword) (coll.) geek/ But I see `(loanword)` at end too, is it because the loanword is more apparent? e.g., 微劈恩 微劈恩 [wei1 pi1 en1] /VPN (loanword)/ 歐姆 欧姆 [ou1 mu3] /ohm (loanword)/ |
