<PARA> Some day computer documentation will be as interesting as fiction; <FOREIGNPHRASE>ad interim</FOREIGNPHRASE> we can busy ourselves marking it up. If your boss asks why the documentation is late, just tell him, <QUOTE><FOREIGNPHRASE LANG="fa_af">Besyar nawaqt nawaqt nist</FOREIGNPHRASE>.</QUOTE> </PARA>
<PARA> <ACRONYM>NASA</ACRONYM> is an acronym for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration formed from the first letters of the major words in that name. Acronyms may be formed from syllables, too, such as <ACRONYM>CINCPAC</ACRONYM> or <ACRONYM>SatCom</ACRONYM> Sometimes it is hard to distinguish acronyms from abbreviations, such as <ABBREV>UCLA</ABBREV> and <ABBREV>U.C.L.A.</ABBREV>. (<FOREIGNPHRASE><ABBREV>Cf</ABBREV></FOREIGNPHRASE> <ACRONYM>DNS</ACRONYM>.) In general, you cannot count on regular use of periods in abbreviations. </PARA>
