Usage Advice

Use when

• Use to carry the full word an abbreviated name part stands for — e.g. the expansion of a South-Indian (Tamil) initial — alongside the abbreviated gmeow:partText.

Avoid when

• Avoid putting the expansion in gmeow:partText (keep the abbreviated surface form there) and avoid it for non-abbreviated parts where there is nothing to expand.

How to use

• Set gmeow:partExpansion on a gmeow:NamePart whose gmeow:partText is an initial, so consumers can render either the initial or its expansion.

Examples

• ex:initialPart gmeow:partText "R."; gmeow:partExpansion "Ramaswamy".
