faq

Common queries answered

Faq is an informal, sometimes jocular rendering of FAQ, the abbreviation for "frequently asked questions." The lowercase spelling treats the acronym as a word rather than initials, often pronounced as a single syllable rhyming with "back": Check the faq before posting. (Capitalized FAQ is the standard form.)
