Often beginning of words composes the abbrev, or it's stored in an other mnemonic way,
for example

     ("pbos" "(py-beginning-of-statement)" nil 36)
     ("pbosp" "(py-beginning-of-statement-p)" nil 2)
     ("pbs" "(py-backward-statement)" nil 2)
     ("pc" "(purecopy" nil 1)
     ("pcb" "(py-close-base" nil 1)
     ("pcf" "py-complete-function" nil 3)
     ("pci" "(py-compute-indentation)" nil 17)
     ("pcioo" "(py-compute-indentation orig origline closing line inside repeat)" nil 1)
     ("pcl" "(py-count-lines)" nil 8)
     ("pclo" "(< (py-count-lines) origline)" nil 1)
     ("pco" "(py-compute-indentation orig origline closing line inside repeat)" nil 2)
     ("pcoo" "(eq (py-count-lines) origline)" nil 1)
     ("pcs" "(py-choose-shell)" nil 4)
     ("pdc" "(py-beginning-of-def-or-class)" nil 0)

Some abbrevs are never used, as the last one here - in exchange many terms have more than one abbrev.
