The abbreviations used in medieval writings are one of the major difficulties for their reading. The dictionary of abbreviations by Adriano Cappelli (several editions) is a very useful tool, still available in bookshops, but of which two editions are also available online, on websites with more or less practical interfaces:

A. Cappelli, Dizionario di abbreviature latine ed italiane, Milano, 1912.

A. Cappelli, Lexicon Abbreviaturarum, 2. verb. Aufl. Leipzig, 1928.

For French abbreviations, see:

Marc Smith, Dictionnaire des abréviations françaises, XIIe-XVIIe siècle
