I might... the acronym doesn't ring any bells and a Google search doesn't show anything special (if anything, it already shows a bunch of other things - including companies and organizations - using the same letters). What is the issue?
- newfoundglory 9y agoI think they are imagining people trying to pronounce the acronyms ngr and fgt and getting offensive words out of them. I don’t think that would have occurred to me.
- badsectoracula 9y agoIf you didn't mention the "getting offensive words" part it wouldn't even cross my mind as i'd pronounce NGR as En-Gee-Ar :-P.
