While the "U.S." is often used in English, the Spanish abbreviation for the United States is what?

• EE.UU.:Once you know that Estados Unidos is Spanish for "United States," you might expect that its acronym would be EU, in English. However, the common standard abbreviation though is EE. UU. To understand why the US is abbreviated as EE. UU. in Spanish, must understand the rule of abbreviations in Spanish. In Spanish, two same phrases can be abbreviated differently depending on whether the phrase is singular or plural. The doubling of letters indicates plurality whereas the use of single letters indicate singularity. Thus, the doubling of the E and U shows the phrase is plural (United States).
