The Acronyma acronym search engine has indexed more than 466,000 acronyms and abbreviations. Most are in English, but Acronyma also searches in Spanish, German, French, Dutch, Italian and Portuguese. I tried it out, and it’s pretty complete. It has translations for JSTARS, GIG-BE, B2B and AFCEA. OBE yields:
Out of Body Experience
Of the British Empire
Order of the British Empire
Outcome-Based Education
Officer of the British Empire
Overtaken By Events
Overcome By Events
Outcome Based Evaluation
Out of Band Experience
Open Business Exchange
There are even some text-messaging acronyms: LOL, BTW and BRB. And when I checked POS, looking for “parent over shoulder� or “point of sale,� Acronyma returned not only those, but also the more popular, off-color acronym for a junk car.
