REFERENCE AID ABBREVIATIONS AND ACRONYMS USED IN THE BRAZILIAN PRESS

FOREWORD

This glossary is one in a series of reference works from the Foreign Broadcast Information Service. It supersedes and replaces the Brazilian portion of JPRS-LAM-93-001, 2 December 1993. All comments and suggestions, especially contributions for future editions, will be welcomed. Please send such comments and suggestions in writing only (no e-mail or calls, please) to: Foreign Broadcast Information Service Language Resources Officer P. O. Box 2604 Washington, D. C. 20013

INTRODUCTION

The material that appears in this glossary was taken from publicly available works. If any user finds an instance where there appears to be an error and wishes to suggest a correction, the editors are eager to review all such comments. Most particularly, suggested new items will be most welcome. This glossary will be reworked periodically and new editions issued when there is sufficient material to warrant an update. For some foreign abbreviations, there is a preferred English equivalent (e.g., UN for United Nations), and this English version will appear in brackets behind the English translation. FBIS asks all of its translators to use this preferred version and urges other users to do likewise.
