+## FAQ
+
+### 1. How do I prevent abbreviations from activating when I don't want them to?
+
+I suggest starting all of your abbreviations with a unique prefix that you are unlikely to type by mistake. 
+For example, I use ';;' as a prefix to all of my abbreviations like so: ';;phone' or ';;apikey'.
+
+### 2. Are there any universally useful expansions?
+
+These vary widely, but common language shorthands which you can't use in a professional setting are 
+good candidates:
+
+- a11y -> accessibility
+- i18n -> internationalization
+- asap -> as soon as possible
+
+And so on. I _highly_ suggest using a prefix on all of these!
+
+### 3. My abbreviation will not expand! Why not?
+
+Make sure that you don't have an illusive space hiding before, or after, the abbreviation. It's most likely
+that you've typed 'my_abbreviation ' when you really meant to type 'my_abbreviation'.
+
+### 4. Can I save my settings across multiple machines?
+
+Yes, simply copy the 'config.abbrv' file that found alongside abbrv.exe to the same folder as the 
+executable on another machine and all of your abbreviations will be there. You can quickly find the 
+'config.abbrv' file by clicking Help -> Open in Explorer."
+
+### 5. Can I use this for expanding code snippets in X editor?
+
+The likely answer is yes, _but_ you should probably find a better code/snippet expander for programming.
+Most editors these days will have some sort of context-aware expansion features that are far more beneficial
+than abbrv is in that regard. The purpose of abbrv is to allow simple text expansion across _any_ application
+or interface.
