Heise editor Andreas Stiller translated the abbreviation into German as “Fragen, Antworten, Quintessenzen”. Another transfer is “question-answer source”. Rarely, one also sees the literally translated abbreviation variant HGF for frequently asked questions.
Since the answers are usually also available, the abbreviation Q&A (Questions and Answers) or the English equivalent Q&A (Questions and Answers) is also occasionally used.
