Is There Any Abbreviation For The Word POLICE?

Answer Question

2 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    As long as I know, the world Police was derived from a Latin word 'politia' which means "civil administration". This Latin word 'politia' was derived from an Ancient Greek work πόλις, for polis which means "city". Although there is no standard abbreviation for POLICE but it can itself be abbreviated as POL like International Police can be written as Intpol. Another group of people believe that word POLICE  is the abbreviation of given words:

    P for Polite, O for Obedient, L  for Loyal, I   for Intelligent, C for Courageous and E for Eager to help. However, the strong evidences show that this word was derived from Latin word and it has no abbreviations.
