A shortening is an abbreviation formed by removing at least the last letter of a word (e.g. etc. and rhino), and sometimes also containing letters not present in the full form (e.g. bike). As a general rule, use a full point after a shortening that only exists in writing (e.g. etc.) but not for a shortening that is used in speech (e.g. rhino).
When an abbreviation contains more than one period, Hart's Rules recommends putting the s after the final one. Examples: Ph.D.s; M.Phil.s; The d.t.s; However, the same plurals may be rendered less formally as: PhDs; MPhils; The DTs (This is the recommended form in the New Oxford Dictionary for Writers and Editors.)
