Definition
A group admitting a partition into abelian subgroups is defined as a group that can be expressed as a union of abelian subgroups (i.e., subgroups that are all abelian groups) of which any two have trivial intersection. In other words, it admits a Partition of a group (?) where all the parts are abelian subgroups.
Note that any nontrivial group with this property is a group admitting a nontrivial partition.
