The abbreviated form with or without the hyphen is more common than the full form and applies to all variants. The hyphenated form is considered official as it is the one used by the Group on its site. The unhyphenated form and the variants "Group of Twenty" and "Group of 20" are also commonly used by international organizations such as the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund and by the Canadian government. Only this G-20 (composed of both industrial and emerging countries) is designated with the form "Group of Twenty." 6, record 1, English, - Group%20of%20Twenty%20Finance%20Ministers%20and%20Central%20Bank%20Governors

Il n'existe pas d'appellation ou de sigle français officiels étant donné que les documents émanant de ce groupe sont rédigés en anglais ou en portugais. Toutefois, les médias et les autorités gouvernementales de l'espace francophone tout comme les organisations internationales telles la Banque mondiale et le Fonds monétaire international utilisent communément les termes «Groupe des Vingt» et «Groupe des 20» ainsi que les abréviations correspondantes. À cet égard, on notera que l'on recourt généralement à l'abréviation (avec ou sans tiret) plutôt qu'à la forme développée pour désigner le groupe. L'abréviation (avec ou sans tiret) s'applique à toutes les variantes. 4, record 1, French, - Groupe%20des%20Vingt
