Bacronym
原声例句
BBC 听力 2014年11月合集 Beating another team means that you 'own' them, and from there we get the bacronym (a phrase constructed after the fact) of 'we own the other team'. 打败了别的团队就意为着拥有了这支团队，这就形成了我们今天的缩略词w00t——在‘we own the other team’这件事发生之后所形成的一个词w00t（bacronym相当于首字母缩略词acronym，但是不同的是bacronym一般是用一个已经为大家所熟悉的单词来表示几个单词，如halt=Hungry Angry Lonely or Tired）。

Backronym（重定向自Bacronym）
 A backronym or bacronym is a specially constructed phrase that is supposed to be the source of a word that is, or is claimed to be, an acronym. Backronyms may be invented with serious or humorous intent, or may be a type of false or folk etymology. The word is a combination of backward and acronym, and has been defined as a "reverse acronym". Its earliest known citation in print is as "bacronym" in the November 1983 edition of the Washington Post monthly neologism contest. The newspaper quoted winning reader Meredith G. Williams of Potomac defining it as the "same as an acronym, except that the words were chosen to fit the letters". |
