Very fun, and easier than expected with so many long answers. The abbreviation seems unnecessary, as there're plenty of longer options left in the grid: rain, train, grin, grit, rent, rant...
Glad you had fun! Well, the answers need to be geography-related: grin, grit, rent and rant don't really apply. Rain and Train could be used with clues that give them geographical context, but even then they are a bit of a stretch. The abbreviation provides some nice variety, and not everyone's getting it, so it's not like it's an easy freebie for everybody.
Tiran perhaps?. It is the name of several geographical places (Tiran). Not a freebie either, because not super well known. And In my opinion more interesting and educational than an abbreviation.
Damn, I got everything except the 9 letter word. I had all the others with over 2 minutes to go and and was racking my brains but still didn't get it. I couldn't get tangerine out of my head.
