Abbreviation and acronyms

Provide an expansion of the abbreviation/acronym, neuronym even, in plain text on first use, use an to mark up the abbreviation, which provides a hint to user agents on how to announce/display the content

<p>
    <abbr>FWIW</abbr> (For what it's worth) I often get the following confused: <abbr>WTF</abbr> and <abbr>FTW</abbr>.
