You mean like Apr. for April? Those little things are weird though. Maybe I can figure out what they are.
I'll let you guys know if I find anything.

Typically June is not abbreviated. You know there is such a thing as an abbreviation dictionary. It's way wack.

You may be right there, but you'd be surprised at who and what abbreviate June.

Well by definition, May wouldn't be in abbreviation, it would be the EXACT SAME WORD!

You better run.
