There should be a word to describe a non-acronym initial letter abbreviation! I’m not sure there is…

Or just an abbreviation, initialism doesn’t really seem to be a word. Gosh language is pesky.

Oh my, you’re so right – I didn’t even know that. So, TLDNR is an initialism, which isn’t half so catchy as acronym but much more accurate.

Well well, you learn something new every day.

Sorry pet hate, but TL;DR is not an acronym as the initials don’t spell a word. Those in glass houses…

A great post, and something I’ve been wondering about too. After all, if the internet is supposed to be the future of reading (a thought that fills most book/newspaper lovers with dread), then it is imperative that quality writing of any length is encouraged and rewarded. Otherwise we may experience the evolution (or devolution) of language into something so economical and “efficient” that it becomes soulless at the same time.

I have read the original post and first response in full. Both were interesting.

I will now make some tea and have a couple of Hob Nobs.

Good day to you.
