Hello all
Can we (maybe admin) put out a list of regular acronyms used in this forum please.
With HOs and sitters from different parts of the globe it becomes a tad difficult to decipher some acronyms.
Society has become lazy even in our speech and perhaps when someone is using an acronym they bracket the full term.
Sometimes I read a post and really cannot figure out what the writer is saying…
But maybe it’s just me😩
Cheers
Karen

I agree and this has been brought up in the past. I usually google them but don’t always get the right answer

@Karen65 here are a few that I have seen being used on the forum. Like @Smiley I Google if I see an acronym I don’t understand .
Every day is a school day.
OP=Original Poster
WFH=work from home
THS= Trusted House Sitters
HO=Homeowner
PP=Per Parent
HS=House sitter
FWIW=For what it’s worth
IMHO=In my humble opinion
LOL=Laugh out loud 
This thread could be used to post any acronym’s that we read in the forum and don’t understand?

In that case, it is often something suspicious and then I look in the https://www.urbandictionary.com/ 
(Because many explanations of modern slang would get blocked by forum settings.)
