Answer:

Abbreviation is a long word until it will find itself the need for a shortened form of itself like all other similar long words.

Step-by-step explanation:

-Abbreviation is formed from the original word brevis. Brevis is a Latin word which means short of any other word, phrase or even sentences.

-Abbreviation itself has many abbreviations:

Abbrv, Abbv, Abbrev, etc.
