abbreviations acronyms
Discussion
Spelling mistakes and punctuality errors I can live with but abbreviations and acronyms I cant.
Im forever using google to try and find out what things mean when scouring the pistonhead forums.
The following quote made me create this thread:
"MIB is an option, but not a very good one"
Sorry but the men in black are doing f
k all let alone 'a very good one'
Could the mods make a sticky of common abbreviations please.
Recently translated:
SWMBO - She who must be obeyed
PITA - Pain in the arse
WWYD - What would you do
MTFU - Man the f
k up
AFAIK - As far as I know
IIRC - If I remember correctly
IM(h)O - In my (honest/humble) opinion
MIB - ?
OEM - Original ? Manufacturer
HTH - ?
ETA - estimated time of arrival/ edited to add
EFA - ?
ATR - 'at the races' is all im aware of - great site for tracking horses.
Im sure there will be many more and Im also sure im not the only person who strugles to translate.
