There are lots of nodes in the Emacs manual with "regexp" in their name,
which is a good abbreviation. But the description of those nodes in
Info menus should always spell out "regular expression" for novice
users. For example, this is good:
* Regexps:: Syntax of regular expressions.
But this is bad:
* Regexp Search:: Search for match for a regexp.
