Technical abbreviations
Technical abbreviations
(OP)
Hi all:
I have difficulty to understand quite a few of the technical (english) abbreviations used in the forum. For instance: What is a BTW, SAT, RAT, GSU?
Is there any publication available listing technical abbreviations?
Thanks

Slava:
Seems that I have to ask you in the future if I have problems with technical abbreviations. Nobody responded sofar that an abbreviation list of this sort is available somewhere. I'm still trying to locate something in the internet.
On the funny side:
It was reported that an increase of UTI, in combination with the presence of HGH, can reduce the VC of BHK.
I give you one star for translating the above.

Thanks jghrist:
This acronymfinder is exactly the tool I need for better understanding the forums threads and posts. I tested RAT and found 46 verified and 141 unverified meanings, including slavas "reserve auxiliary transformer".
BTW, the abbreviations below I found in a medical acronym finder and I used them in yesterdays mistery sentence:
UTI = Urinary Tract Infection
HGH = Human Growth Hormone
VC = Vital Capacity
BHK = Baby Hamster Kidney
Now you can translate what my mistery sentence was about. We now can close this thread. Thanks to you all.
