	Plant Science Bulletin - 1978, Voume 24, Issue 1
		Similarly, the inclusion of lists of abbreviations for each chapter distracts from the readability of the monograph; a general listing would have amplified an already excellent attempt to combine successfully the contributions of a diverse list of authors.
		Forthcoming articles in BioScience of interest to botanists include: The Plant protoplast: A useful tool for plant research and student instruction, Traditional and modern crop protection in perspective, and The flowering enigma.
		Evolutionary botanists as well as crop scientists are giving increased attention to the origins of crop plants and to relationships between wild and cultivated taxa.

	LINGUIST List 4.494: Acronyms
		Although once the acronym is regularly pronounced, it is subject to syllabic acronymizing, as in the 'you-dub' pronunciation of the orthographic acronym (UW) for the University of Washington.
		I suspect syllabic acronymification is less orthography-driven, although I think a major impetus behind both kinds is 'acronymy' of graphic effort and 'acronymy' of physical space, not just the desire to avoid pronouncing a few extra syllables.
		In speech, the "abbreviation" requires 6 or 8 syllables (depending on whether W is 'double-you' or 'dub-ya'), while the "long" form requires only four.

	Decoymusic.com - Definition of "EMO"
		Emo (an abbreviation of "emotionally-driven hardcore punk" or just "emotional-hardcore") is a term now broadly used to describe almost any form of guitar-driven alternative rock that expresses emotions beyond traditional punk's limited emotional palette of alienation and rage.
		The term "emo kid" is often used as an insult aimed at people who dress in a way based upon emo fashion, or who listen to music considered to be "emo".
		In the early 1990s, a new derivative emerged out of the more crazy and dramatic leanings of the DC sound, called variously "chaotic emo", "screamo", "Emo Violence" and "hardcore emo" (which is somewhat of a misnomer as "emo" is short for "emotional hardcore" in the first place).

		Re: gypsy: Dictionary.com lists the American Heritage Dictionary's entry for "gypsy" as its primary definition, identifying gypsies as descendants of migrants from northern India who "have preserved elements of their traditional culture, including an itinerant existence and the Romany language."

	The Traditional Ballad Index - Instructions
		The Ballad Index is not a source of song texts, although we do have some sample texts in the Supplemental Tradition.
		In the same way, there are two versions of some old songs such as "The Broom of the Cowdenknowes." The two are completely different in their plots, but one was deliberately adapted to the tune and metrical pattern of the other.
		If you have a major ballad book that has not been indexed, please notify me so that I can be sure that no one else is working on your book, and assign you an abbreviation for your book.

	Mnemonic Strategies
		An acronym is an abbreviation in which each of the letters stands for the first letter in a list of words to be recalled.
		Other popular mnemonic strategies include rhyming ("I before e, except after c, or sounded as a, as in neighbor and weigh") and singing (as in the traditional alphabet song and current attempts to use rap music to teach concepts to children who enjoy that type of music).
		What the research shows is that students who use mnemonic strategies are generally not at a disadvantage compared to students who use other strategies, such as semantic analysis or free study, when they are asked to give or infer the meaning of words a week or so after studying them.
