The way natives pronounce acronyms is funny..
How do you pronounce lol and asap? I thought it would be /el,eu,el/ and /ei,es,ei,pi/ ...(just pronounce each alphabat)...Recently, I just heard some natives pronouncing those acronyms...I thought it funny..to be honest...
How could you possibly pronounce those un-related alphabats like a word..haha...it's hilarious..
