C Correct answer
Explanation

The ':ab' command in vi/vim creates an abbreviation - when you type the shorthand, it automatically expands to the full phrase. The syntax is ':ab shorthand expansion'. Here '9u' is the abbreviation that expands to the long Hawaiian fish name. Option A incorrectly uses 'set abb', and option B uses 'una' which is for abbreviations in command mode, not insert mode.
