Hi Everyone! So JacJac pointed out to me earlier today that the guide to all the WW Community lingo isn't loading.

Hi Everyone!

So JacJac pointed out to me earlier today that the guide to all the WW Community lingo isn't loading. (It used to be linked in the 'Welcome to the WW Community' sticky & thank you JacJac I can always count on you!)

When I looked into this a little further I was experiencing some issues so I thought why not create a new article where we can guide our newbies to all the abbreviations we use here in our forums.

So you know what to do. List some of the commonly used abbreviations we all use (FH, MOH, NWR, etc) and what they stand for and I'll create a new 'glossary' if you will by COB today!

Thank you for all your help ladies-- Happy Monday!

    Oh, everyone answered.

    @Maggie, I'd say S/O is spinoff, and SO is significant other... at least, that's how I'd tell them apart.

    I agree with Reenski on the differential between S/O and SO. Smiley smile

    ETA depends on the context.

    If I see a comment was edited, and it says ETA: blah blah, I assume edited to add.

    If you're telling use about your dress or some other shipment, I'd assume ETA is estimated time of arrival.

    @Tatiana, oh, I guess it could be an acronym then. I have seen in other forums people use TTT for to the top.
