Re: abbreviation in English
Thank you for your explanation. Now I get it. This thread should be changed to Acronym in English language.vladimir wrote:abbreviation is a shortened version of a word: abbr for abbreviation, abbreviated, etc.
Etc is an abbreviation for etcetera
acronym is the first letters of several words, ie USA
ie = in exemplia, Latin acronym.

Are you talking about FYI that Dancan suggested? Don't believe him.prahkeitouj wrote:Thanks, everyone! Hehehe why some words use different meanings?
FYI means For Your Information.
បើសិនធ្វើចេះ ចេះឲ្យគេកោត បើសិនធ្វើឆោត ឆោតឲ្យគេអាណិត។
If you know a lot, know enough to make them respect you, if you are stupid, be stupid enough so they can pity you.

OP = Original Post/Poster,prahkeitouj wrote:What is OP?
for example, if someone starts a thread on a forum asking a question, but then the thread goes a little of topic or someone wants to reference something to the original post, they would say
"Going back to the OP, the answer is...."
or
"well going off the information in the OP, dont you think they should....."
