"An abbrev table is represented as an obarray containing a symbol for each abbreviation. The symbol's name is the abbreviation; its value is the expansion; its function definition is the hook function to do the expansion; its property list cell typically contains various additional properties such as the use count, the number of times the abbreviation has been expanded, or whether the abbrev is a so-called "system" abbrev defined by a major mode rather than by the user."
