Did you know that acronyms are types of words?

And many modern words are elisions and concatenations of words we no longer use.

Where do you stand on OK, where it’s actually a word, or laser and modem which are nouns with specific meanings even though they were derived originally?

What about cole instead od coca cola, cocaine and compressed coal?
