Frequently Asked Questions

A numeronym is an abbreviation where the middle letters of a word are replaced by the count of those letters. For example, 'internationalization' becomes 'i18n' because there are 18 letters between 'i' and 'n'. This convention is common in software development.
Common numeronyms in tech include i18n (internationalization), l10n (localization), a11y (accessibility), k8s (Kubernetes), and o11y (observability). They save time when writing and discussing these long terms.
Enter one or more words separated by spaces. For each word with 4 or more characters, the tool keeps the first and last letter and replaces everything in between with the count of removed letters. Words with 3 or fewer characters are left unchanged.
