I have a long list of common abbreviations for words in periodical titles. In the list, the full word is followed by its abbreviation. For example:
- Administration
- Admin.
- Applied
- Appl.
- Administrative
- Administ.
- Approximate
- Approx.
I want to turn the list into a Markdown table, like this:
Word | Abbreviation |
---|---|
Administration | Admin. |
Applied | Appl. |
The problem is that doing this by hand would take forever. So, I'm looking for some way to do this faster. If it helps, all of the abbreviated forms end with a period (.).
I've looked online but couldn't find anything for this. That's why I'm asking here. Any help?
