@TheFormHater In the days of PROPER education standards, where the English language was taught CORRECTLY, that is, up to the end of the 1970s, acronyms remained as acronyms and we were taught to treat them as such and NOT make them into words. But with today's sloppy and slovenly standards......... No wonder the English language is going down the toilet!

Don't make words from acronyms! It makes you sound stupid and childish! Acronyms are meant to be read out as individual letters that represent the words for which the acronym stands, such as EMI = Electric & Musical Industries, BMG = Bertelsmann Music Group.
