3. Acronyms: How They Work

**Acronym: **a word formed from the first letters of the words that make up the name of something. E.g. LATAM: Latin America.

Initialism: it’s like an acronym but you pronounce each letter. E.g. UN: United Nations. Keep in mind the use of indefinite articles: a URL, an HTML.

**ASCII: **/ˈæski/: It´s an acronym. American Standard Code for Information Interchange
UTF: It´s an initialism. Unicode Transformation Format.
ANSI: /ˈænsi/. American National Standards Institute.
GIF: /ɡɪf/ or /dʒɪf/ Graphic Interchange Format. It´s better to pronounce it /ɡɪf/ to avoid confusion when pronouncing JIFF /dʒɪf/.
JPEG: /ˈdʒeɪpeɡ/ [uncountable] Joint Photographic Experts Group. Technology that reduces the size of files that contain images.
MPEG: /ˈempeɡ/ [uncountable] Moving Picture Experts Group. Technology that reduces the size of files that contain video images or sounds.

CTA: Call to action.
CTR: Click-through rate.
CPM: cost per mille also called cost per thousand.
SaaS: /sæs/ software as a service
IaaS: Infrastructure as a service

WYSIWYG: /ˈwɪziwɪɡ/ what you see is what you get (what you see on the computer screen is exactly the same as will be printed or displayed)
UI: /ˌjuː ˈaɪ/ User Interface
UX: /ˌjuː ˈeks/ User experience
CMS: /ˌsiː em ˈes/ Content Management System
CRM: Customer Relationship Management

B2C: /ˌbiː tə ˈsiː/ business-to-consumer

B2B2C, C2C2B, and all kinds of combinations

Casual language:
OMG: Oh My God
**LOL: **Laughing Out Loud
ROFL: Rolling on the Floor Laughing
FOMO: Fear Of Missing Out

i18n: internationalization

When I started, some developers on my team expected me to know about CRUD. At that time that acronym was not used in my environment, but it was very interesting for me to learn it.
C = Create
R = Read
U = Update
D = Delete

SQL
this is the most controversial acronym

Some people are for “sequel,” some are for “S.Q.L.,” and still others make their own pronunciations. The standard says that ‘Ess-cue-ell’ is the appropriate way of speaking SQL. However, many English-speaking database professionals still use the nonstandard pronunciation “sequel.”

Quizlet: Inglés para Developers [2022 - Platzi]

👋Hey Devs! I just created some units in Quizlet with the vocabulary and phrases in this course.
.
📚Quizlet is a very famous app to study and create Learning Cards.
I suggest that you study on the ‘Fichas’ mode and set Quizlet to show you the definitions first (I put the clues on ‘Definition’) and try to remember the term on the other side of the card (I put the term to remember on ‘Terms’).
.
🎉Hope this is useful for you!

No sabía la diferencia entre Initialisms y Acronyms. Aparte no sabía lo de A11y

Acronyms are words formed by the first letters of the words in the phrase that we want to abbreviate.
The initialisms are the first letter of the words together but each one is read separately

LGTM: Looks good to me! o tambien puede ser Looks garbage to me 😂

CEO —> Chief Executive Officer
SWOT —> Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats.

TTYL= Talk To You Later (Hablamos mas tarde)
OMG = Oh my God
FTF= Face to face

El Inicialism es lo mismo que el Acronyms, la diferencia es que un Acronyms se lee (pronuncia) como una sola palabra, en cambio el Inicialism no, solo letra por letra.

Here I share with you some more acronyms I found on the Internet (some of them are not related to technology but I wanted to add them anyways):
NATO: The North Atlantic Treaty Organization
LASER: Light Amplification by the Stimulated Emission of Radiation
PIN: Personal Identification Number
RADAR: Radio Detection and Ranging
SMART: Specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and timely
NASA: National Aeronautics and Space Administration
RAM: Random Access Memory

I hope they can be useful for you!
