Help deciphering abbreviations

[Ilovewishes]

I come on here every now and then, more for a nosey at what other people have to say than anything, and I don't know if I'm alone in this, but I just don't understand some of the abbreviations people use in their posts!

I know alot of the more simple ones such as Potc (Pirates of the Caribean) and DVC (Disney Vacation Club) but I thought maybe it would be useful to have as many as we can all in one place with what they mean next to them.

Or am I just being dumb?:veryconfu

LOL you'll get used to it. It took me a while to catch on so don't feel bad, and I'm still learning new ones all the time.

:wave: I'm right there with ya! I get tripped up on some of them too sometimes. And although I appreciate the person who provided the link, there are still some abbreviations used that aren't on the list. For example, there seems to be a set of 2-letter abbreviations that apparently refer to different types of significant others and/or family members. Example: DH (as in, "My DH and I went to Epcot last weekend and..."). What do "DH" and the others stand for?

That one is there. I had to look it up the first time. Just go to the bottom of the list. Gotta go my DW is calling. :ROFLOL:

I know it can be confusing and the acronyms thing on the main page helped me alot and I still have to go there sometimes.

And then, when you think you've got it all figured out, they go and change the name of a park!

MGM ──> DHS

:lol:

Seriously though, I always get tripped up with them abbreviating the Disney's Hollywood Studios name with DHS because so many people DH or DS.

DHS sounds like something from the backwoods. (Dear Husband/Son) :lookaroun
