You can abbreviate it either way, but it is VERSUS.

ver·sus (vûr'səs, -səz)
prep.
Abbr. v. or vs. Against: the plaintiff versus the defendant; Army versus Navy.
As the alternative to or in contrast with: "freedom of information versus invasion of privacy" (Ian Hamilton).


And SAK: VICE VERSA (NOT vicesa-versa) is not the same thing as VERSUS.

I think you mean "versus" and either abbreviation is correct:

boys v. girls

Spartans vs. Cougars

PS: Vice-versa would be v v but without the spaces (looks like a "w" on this page)

I believe the common abbreviation for "Versus" is "vs"

It is vs. Unless you a referring to court case in which case it is typically v. (i.e. Smith v. the state of new york)

VS... V may be misconstrued as the roman numeral for five

2007-02-06 16:58:16 · answer #9 · answered by Wren Tagair 3 · 1 1

it's actually "versus", as in one thing versus another, and you can use v. or vs.
