5 definitions for FAQ From The Collaborative International Dictionary of English v.0.48 :
FAQ \FAQ\ (f[a^]k), FAQ list \FAQ" list`\ (f[a^]k"l[i^]st`),
FAQlist \FAQ"list\ (f[a^]k"l[i^]st`), pr. n. [acronym from
Frequently Asked Questions.]
A list of questions and answers concerning a specific topic,
such as how to use a particular computer program. Many such
lists contain answers to the most commonly asked questions
about that topic, however the questions need not derive from
actual queries. Such lists are often maintained in electronic
form and made available on the World Wide Web. [acronym]
[PJC]
From WordNet (r) 2.0 :
FAQ
n : a list of questions that are frequently asked (about a given
topic) along with their answers
From Virtual Entity of Relevant Acronyms (Version 1.9, June 2002) :
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions (telecommunication-slang, Usenet)
From Jargon File (4.3.1, 29 Jun 2001) :
FAQ /F-A-Q/ or /fak/ n. [Usenet] 1. A Frequently Asked Question. 2. A
compendium of accumulated lore, posted periodically to high-volume
newsgroups in an attempt to forestall such questions. Some people prefer
the term `FAQ list' or `FAQL' /fa'kl/, reserving `FAQ' for sense 1.
This lexicon itself serves as a good example of a collection of one
kind of lore, although it is far too big for a regular FAQ posting.
Examples: "What is the proper type of NULL?" and "What's that funny name
for the `#' character?" are both Frequently Asked Questions. Several
FAQs refer readers to this file.
