What is Latin Abbreviations in Academic Writing about?
Latin abbreviations are still commonly used in academic writing, though they should be used sparingly. If used, writers must ensure they choose the correct abbreviation. To check the intended meaning, one can substitute the Latin phrase with its English translation to confirm the sentence still makes sense. Common Latin abbreviations include cf. for compare, e.g. for for example, et al. for and others, etc. for and so forth, i.e. for that is, and N.B. for note well.
