Mine is OOO for Out Of Office. I always misread it in my head like a ghost and it takes me a few seconds to process. It also doesn’t translate to speech—you have to say the whole thing.

Interested to see if others have similar acronyms they beef with.

    Ghee actually uses a different sound than “ghost”, but we don’t have that sound in English. It’s like saying that “ts” makes an “s” sound because of the word tsunami.

    So is that all of the gh words? Because that’s a very small list, lol

      Like OP said, very few words start with GH. My point is that the few words that do are very common and familiar.
