#260: OMG! This is How to Use Abbreviations Like a Native
Today we’re talking all about abbreviations in English. In case you’re not familiar with this term, an abbreviation is a shortened form of a word or phrase. For example, we might say FYI instead of “for your information” or ASAP instead of “As soon as possible.” You’ll come across abbreviations in your work, studies, and general daily life. They’re a huge part of communication, especially when texting or sending online messages or emails. In this podcast, we’ll clarify the various types of abbreviations and also teach you some of the most common ones.
