After some previous conversation about the hover dates on mobile (Re^3: RFC: "Today I Learned" page), I successfully applied similar results to abbr:

@media (pointer: coarse), (hover: none) {
a.hoverDate:link:before { content: attr(title) ": "; font-size:75%; ba
+ckground: #ddd; foreground: #111; }
abbr:after { content: " {/" attr(title) "\05C}"; font-size:75%; backgr
+ound: #ddd; }
}

This works for me when I view your post in my mobile browser: I see it as <abbr> {/abbreviations\}
