  1. well the opposite word for abbreviation is i guess full word


  2. An opposite meaning for abbreviation would be full or expanded.

    "Pro" means for and "con" means against. They are opposites of eachother. They are not abbreviations.

  3. I'm not sure, if abbreviation has an antonym/opposite word.

    Pro & Con are not abbreviations.

    Refer: http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/pro#Englis...

    Pro means advantage & Con means disadvantage.

  4. expansion

  5. I would think that 'full version' or 'unabridged' is the opposite in some contexts.

    Pro is the full or unabridged word from the latin 'pro', meaning 'for'.

    Con is short for 'contra' - again from the latin, meaning against.


  6. Antonyms: abbreviation

    n

    Definition: something shortened

    Antonyms: augmentation, enlargement, expansion, extension, increase, long form
