This article does that annoying thing where it uses
acronymsInitialisms without previously using the full verbiage at least once.BEV - Battery-Electric Vehicle
NGDV - Next Generation Delivery Vehicle
LLV - Long Life Vehicle
Wtf
Initialisms, technically. But thank you nevertheless.
fixed ty
And yet there’s no <initialism> html tag, and it hurts me.
TIL about initialisms, which are like acronyms but when you pronounce the initial letters individually instead of like a spelled out word. DVD being an initialism, versus SCUBA being an acronym.
Eh, BEV could go either way
Who the hell calls a BEV a woman’s name?
Bev sounds like you’re shortening Beverly. BEV and you know it’s a vehicle.
Good point, why say BEV when you could say BEV
TOMATO vs [tʰə̥ˈmeɪɾoʊ]
To be fair I immediately assumed NGDV was Next Generation Delivery Vehicle. idk how, I just did
To translate further:
BEV - self explanatory never mind
NGDV - Oshkosh Next Generation Delivery Vehicle, The new mail truck that looks like a duck
LLV - The Grumman Long Life Vehicle, the classic mail truck.
and as a bonus
FFV - The Ford-Utilimaster Flexible Fuel Vehicle, the early 2000s mail truck that looks like the LLV that you buy from wish.
