> Ah, but *which* particular form?

What difference does it make? This is a serious question - given that
speech readers should already know how to pronounce non-words, what is
the point of telling your interface what =kind= of abbreviation
something is?

How would RADAR, Mr., and SCSI be treated differently by software that
knows exactly what kind of abbreviation it is? (especially considering
that many =people= don't know and get along fine.)
