Question

What is a acronym?

Answer 1

It's an abbreviated form of something. So when you see something like N.A.S.A., that's an acronym.

Answer 2

Or S.W.A.T.

Answer 3

It's an abbreviation. For example, when you text your friend and say "LOL" it stands for "Laugh Out Loud" but it has been abbreviated. So, "LOL" would be considered an acronym.

Answer 4

No, acctually lol is an abbreviation, not an acronym. An acronym is something you say as a word, not as a group of letters. Lol, omg, brb and gtg are abbreviations. SWAT or NASA are acronyms because they are said as a word but also have initials that stand for something.
