UK 常用 Acronyms part 1

即使喺香港我地都已經用緊大量英文 acronyms，好似 TBC，RIP，BrB，DOB，LOL，BTW，FYI，OMG，WTF，FAQ，AKA，ASAP，NMSL(誤) 等等，呢啲應該人人都識，唔作解釋喇。但英國人都有好多其他常用嘅 acronyms 大家喺香港可能少啲寫/用到，以下略為列出少少。

要留意 acronyms 係將幾個英文字嘅頭一個字母砌成，同 abbreviation 係兩回事，Abbreviation 係縮寫，例如將 doctor 寫成 Dr.，Doctor of Philosophy 寫成 PhD，administration 寫成 admin，introduction 寫成 intro 等等。
