What’s the difference between acronym vs initialism?
Acronyms and initialisms are both abbreviations that use the first letters of words in a phrase; the difference is in their pronunciation.
Technically, acronyms are pronounced as words (e.g., “NASA”or “NATO”).
Initialisms, on the other hand, are pronounced letter by letter (e.g., “FYI” or “BBC”).
