Top Tweets for #Initialism
Did you know?
It's only called an acronym when you pronounce the abbreviation as a real word (ex. NASA, UNESCO). Otherwise, it is known as an initialism (ex. FBI, BBC, or USA), where you say each letter out loud.

I asked my form to come up with an #initialism for the letters that are my initials and the name of our form. This is what they came up with, eventually! #lasercut #plywood #formtime #future #succeed #thrive #mrstewartdt

@mapq @Ricardo_0621 A student corrected me on this a few semesters ago. Strictly speaking, an acronym must be pronounceable as a word, not simply by saying the letters. TLA is an #initialism, while NASA is a true #acronym. SQL could be either, depending on how you say it. #LearningFromOurStudents

"If an acronym is said letter by letter, like FBI or ATM, it is called an initialism. To be a true acronym all of the letters must be said as a word, some examples are NATO, NASA and POTUS."

When did initialism become a real word? I’ve always used acronym when describing this definition. In 40 years of living on this planet, I had never heard the word initialism until a few minutes ago. #mandelaeffect #acronym #initialism
An #Acronym is formed by the first letters of a phrase or name and strung into a new made up word. So while 'BBC' and 'WMD' and 'RSS' are all abbreviations but not acronyms in the sense that NATO is for North Atlantic Treaty Organisation. The term #Initialism is often used.
I learned the difference between an acronym and initialism today when I was arguing with a gun rights person and kept calling their organization the “Nerah”. Oops!
