formatUnitAbbr()function

formatUnitAbbr(unit: string, options?: UnitFormatOptions): string

Param	Type
`unit`	`string`	Unit reference, e.g. `"minute"` or `"product"`. required
`options`	`UnitFormatOptions`	Options for quantity formatting.
`.one`	`string`	String for one of this thing, e.g. `product` or `item` or `sheep` - Used for `unitDisplay: "long"` formatting. - Defaults to unit reference, e.g. "minute" readonly
`.many`	`string`	String for several of this thing, e.g. `products` or `items` or `sheep` - Used for `unitDisplay: "long"` formatting. - Defaults to `one + "s"` readonly
`.abbr`	`string`	Abbreviation for this thing, e.g. `products` or `items` or `sheep` (defaults to `one` + "s"). - Used for `unitDisplay: "narrow"` formatting. - Defaults to unit reference, e.g. "minute" readonly

Return
`string`	The short name of the unit, e.g. `"min"`.

Format the short name of a unit on its own, e.g. "km" or "min", with no number.

Uses the Intl.NumberFormat short name when the browser supports the unit, so the name is translated (e.g. "Std." for hour in German).
Falls back to options.abbr, then to the unit reference itself, when the browser does not support the unit.
Gives the name for an amount of one, so some units in some locales differ from their plural form (e.g. "day" not "days").

Examples

formatUnitAbbr("kilometer") // "km"

formatUnitAbbr("dog", { abbr: "🐶" }) // "🐶"
