Hi Mr.Torsten,
It's easy to understand that JAN is the abbreviation of January and NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) is an acronym. but I still have a concern when you said that FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation) is an abbreviation, I used to think it was an acronym. Please give me more information. Thanks

Hi,
An acronym is a word that is formed from the first initials from other words. This means, you can read an acronym as word. You can read an abbreviation only letter by letter.
For example, NASA is an acronym because you can read as one word. FBI is an abbreviation because you have to spell the letters separately. |
Thanks for so clear explanation, Torsten.
I can tell the difference between acronym and abbreviation now :) |

Dear teacher,
I did understand about Abbreciation and Acronym to be exactingly explained by you .
I wish to make some examples of them as for your reading my understanding.
1.Adjective is abbreciated "Adj".
2.Adverb is abbreciated "Adv".
3.Conjuntion is abbreciated "Con".
4.Teacher Training department is acronymed as T.T.D.
5.World Food Program is aconymed as W.F.P.
6.United nation international children emergency fund is acronymed as UNCEF.
Thanks
