<The best way to use an acronym is to use the phrase first in a post and
then
initials later in the post.>

Thanks, Pat, for reminding us. These posts (many of them American English
idioms) have just made me think "What if Gonneke (or Esther, or someone
from France or Spain, etc.) were to decide to use a German (Hebrew,
French, Spanish etc.) idiom, reduce it to an acronym, and then use it in
her post without explanation? Sure would block communication to me!
