Subject: Abbrev for shorthand purposes
Date: Fri, 05 Aug 2022 05:31:58 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <LY4diPgbb9TdPoH-3o-1AtLKLmLh4_r86iGL_rAX91fROGC_XcrcyPqakFS4EuEAnkFfk70lx74lT_KI3bJJvSBTazpFgvRWDFGNmc3UY14=@proton.me> (raw)

Have been trying to use abbrev for shorthand purposes. I can go from text to shorthand but not the other way round, because
of the punctuation. Is there something I can do? Use of abbrev-mode also fails in situations when different the same abbreviation
could expand to more than one word.

("wayward" "wa/") ("westward" "W/")
("adjustment" "ajs-") ("armament" "am-")
("basement" "bs-") ("casement" "ks-")
("enactment" "nak-") ("enjoyment" "njy-")
("enlargement" "nlj-") ("entertainment" "Ntn-") ("measurement" "mz/-") ("movement" "mv-")
("recommend" "rk-") ("require" "rqi") ("separate" "sp;")
("silk" "slk") ("struck" "Sk") ("subject" "sj")
