       The American Dialect Society always has great word-of-the-year nominees. The Acronym/Initialism of the Year  category seems especially strong this year with FOFI, AITA, IYKYK, LFG, and MOOP.Check out the whole list! (Voting starts soon.)https://americandialect.org/nominations-for-words-of-the-year-2023/

       @grammargirl With my speech synthesizer that almost sounds like the American Dalek Society.

       @grammargirl That would be a tough one to choose. For me it’d either be FOFI or IYKYK.

       @grammargirl my students will be sad to learn that the old folks have finally caught on to ‘rizz’

       @grammargirl Strange that the entry “rizz: charm or attractiveness, used as a combining form or blend component (rizzler, pre-rizz-toric)” doesn't mention charisma at all.

       @grammargirl Great list, thanks for posting!Just one thing (professional damage from a row of copy editing jobs): You probably meant to write FAFO in your list of acronyms, not FOFI. On the other hand, maybe FOFI has an even more interesting definition? Find Out, but what?
