For example: I abbreviated the name「名前を略した」(なまえをりゃくした). This term is often used in formal or written contexts, such as in academic papers, business documents, or when referring to abbreviations like 'USA' or 'UN'. Another example: He omitted unnecessary details「彼は不要な詳細を略した」(かれはふようなしさいをりゃくした). Note that this verb can also imply simplifying or condensing information.
