ABBREVIATION_OR_ACRONYM

Although the SKOS Core Vocabulary Specification Working Draft suggests that altLabel may include abbreviations and acronyms for the concept, our design calls for placing abbreviations and acronyms in this separate element. We believe this will enable easy filtering  or querying to construct abbreviation and acronym lists that often appear in government documents.
