/əˈbɹɪ.d͡ʒɚ/

one who shortens or abridges or condenses a written work

ਉਹ ਜੋ ਇੱਕ ਲਿਖਤੀ ਕੰਮ ਨੂੰ ਛੋਟਾ ਜਾਂ ਸੰਖੇਪ ਕਰਦਾ ਹੈ ਜਾਂ ਸੰਘਣਾ ਕਰਦਾ ਹੈ

abbreviator (ਸੰਖੇਪ)

1. One who abridges.

ਇੱਕ ਜੋ ਸੰਖੇਪ ਕਰਦਾ ਹੈ।

1. I am an abridger. When I tell people, at a party for instance, that I am an abridger, their faces cloud with confusion and I always have to explain. What I do is take the written work of other people and compress it.

2. while the abilities of the nine-hundredth abridger of the History of England, or of the man who collects and publishes in a volume some dozen lines of Milton, Pope, and Prior, with a paper from the Spectator, and a chapter from Sterne, are eulogized by a thousand pens—there seems almost a general wish of decrying the capacity and undervaluing the labour of the novelist, and of slighting the performances which have only genius, wit, and taste to recommend them.
