Pronunciation of Episode Abbreviations - 11/01/06 09:03 AM
Ok, we've seen the posts about episode abbreviations and how some people get totally confused by them.
My question is, when you see an episode abbreviation, do you (in your head as you read, of course) spell it out, or read the abbreviation like it's a word?
For instance, do you say to yourself "T-O-G-O-M," or make "TOGOM" a word? Does this practice differ depending on which episode is abbreviated?
OR, do you just say the whole name of the episode to yourself when you read the abbreviation? Like, if it says "TOGOM," do you automatically insert, "That Old Gang of Mine" in your head?
