OPTIONAL on element: <term>
| Value | Meaning |
|---|---|
| acronym | The term is an acronym. Typically an acronym is made up of the initial letters of the components of the full form of a term or a proper name or from syllables of the full form term. Abbreviations are pronounced syllabically, typically as a single word. For example, “laser”, “NDA”, “ISO”, “SDO”, “UNESCO”, “WHO”. This value need not be a true acronym, only an abbreviated-form of the term. (See ISO 704:2009 for more on the use of the term "acronym".) |
| abbreviation | The term is an abbreviation. Typically an abbreviation is formed by omitting letters from the full form, for example, the abbreviation “vol” for “volume”. This value need not be a true abbreviation, only an abbreviated-form of the term. |
| equation | The term is a simple mathematical or chemical expression, typically all in one line with minimal operators. |
| formula | The term is a formula. In a formula, graphics, symbols, or the like are used to express a concept such as a mathematical or chemical formula. May be complex with multi-line operators or braces. |
| fullForm | The term is the complete presentation of a term in a word or phrase. This value is used only if there is also an abbreviated form or an acronym. If a term has no abbreviation or acronym documented in the entry, there is no need to indicate the full form. |
| symbol | The term is a symbol (the designation of a term by numerals, letters, pictograms or any combination thereof) rather than an ordinary word or phrase. |
| translation | This term is a translation, the term expressed in another language. |
| variant | This is a variant term, an alternate form of a term, due to, differences in spelling, hyphenation, capitalization, spacing, and so forth. |
| Restriction | This is an optional attribute; there is no default. |
