Not sure who came up with abbreviations, but they were used since the beginning of time as inscriptions and more readily used by ancient and medieval scribes writing in Latin.

1. It is an abbriviation from the 19th century that was used in some writing, like magazines, meaning 'All Correct,' the joke being that  neither are correct.  Also came to prominence during the Martin Van Buren run for the presidency.\n\n2. to take action, to execute

Quotes are said not written.\nThe question should be "Who said......" NOT   "Who Wrote"

It's so funny to me that in your first question people said there were no contradictions and asked you to name some.  When you DID name some they say it screwed up translation.  Good job.

It's been a while, but Demosthenes and Locke where the names used by the two to write papers.  They were a bit young, so if they wrote under their real names, most likely they wouldn't be taken seriously.  Also, the two of them tried to write opposing views most of the time so that it would be difficult to pinpoint that it was essentially the same people writing both points of view.\n\nOften, they would use these contrasting points of view to strengthen their arguments that they were trying to get across.

One set of quotation marks would suffice. You just have to state your source as well as where the author quoted from.

The answer is hidden in the question itself, the word is too long because it is a word, not abbreviation (from the Latin "abbreviatio", verb is to "abbreviate" - make briefer); unfortunately i don't know any officially used abbreviation for "abbreviation", but i can figure it out: let me see, something lika "abbr." or "abn" either "abvn".\n“Brevity” is indeed connected to “Abbreviation”, but is (through mediation of French) coming from Latin “Brevitas” (having Brevi- + -tas) from adjective “Brevis” – “Short”, becoming in English “Brief”. That’s all official information about it. Such terms are generally having a Latin origin.

There has already been an unsuccessful attempt in the UK courts by the publishers of HBHG to sue him.\n\nThe central hypothesis has been around for many years in different guises ... I doubt anyone could claim the original idea - there is even ancient theological texts that mention it.\n\nPeace out\n\nADDITIONAL\n\nIn answer to response above, DB did not acknowledge the authors of HBHG - he made one reference to the book (it wasn't even clear if it was a real book) but did not state the authors ... he did use their names in anagram form for the main character though!
