or NASA... those are all acronyms.

but TIBB is an initialism, which means you pronounce all of the letters.

how do you pronounce USA? like Borat? the ussah lol

I'm actually surprised that most people say it as an acronym. I always assumed that everyone thought of it as invididual letters in their heads.

It absolutely can be, and I guess since most people here say it is, it is. I'll have to change my thinking about it. I'm just surprised that everyone automatically called it tib. Tib makes me think of Tab the old soda from the 80's

Tea eye bee bee because I'm not an inbred moron

Redway 01-09-2012 04:47 PM

I can't believe more people say tib. It's like when people say vat instead of vee ay tee.
