Words you can keep
Short for an abandoned house. Chances are, if you know someone who says they are living in an abando, they are a drug addict who has burned bridges with family and friends, and cannot go to a shelter as that would mean at least temporarily abandoning their drugs.
"He said he's living in an abando since he lost his job and smoked all his money." "So wait - he couldn't just live in that boat he stole?" "Nah - he sold it for drugs."

Abandon is when you are left alone in your darkest time. When you are abandoned you feel alone, sad and unwanted. You might get abandoned by friends but, that just means that they are fake friends. Always make sure who are your real friends and who are fake.
Abandon is to be left alone, this mostly happens in your darkest times, when you need someone the most.

Pre-Abandoned 

1. A building or military installation that is never intended to be used, but which must be constructed anyway for political reasons.

2. A public space that planners know will never be occupied or properly used. It gets built anyway to satisfy a planning commission or zoning board.

3. The act of constructing something useless and pointless because it is demanded by an overall "plan."
"Did you hear about those Pre-Abandoned schools in Iraq? They built them out in the desert without any electricity or air conditioning. No one will ever use them, but at least they look good on paper."

abandonware 

n. software that is no longer sold or supported by the original publisher / developer, often found as free downloads on the internet because it cannot be obtained elsewhere. Not legal, but often seen as morally acceptable because the company that made it is no longer selling the title, nor releasing it as freeware, therefore abandonware is "keeping the game alive", so to speak.
Doom II is not abandonware because id still sells it, while The Incredible Machine is not sold, therefore is abandonware.
