Hi Glot
"Omfs" as shown in the link has 27 ups and 7 downs. The first definition of the word says: short for "Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery" usually used by oral surgeons. It doesn't say it is an acronym nor does it say it is an abbreviation. Let's hear from Tim. Cheers ![]() PS: "offs" is also used as a verb. Check this link http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/offs

Geo, maybe I shouldn't call it an acronym. I meant "the short". May I draw your attention to the following:
- IMHO (imho) is the short of "in my humble opinion", but 'IMHO' is not a WORD acceptable to the game. - FWIW (fwiw) is the short of "for what it's worth", but 'FWIW' is not a WORD acceptable to the game. - OTOH (otoh) is the short of "on the other hand", but 'OTOH' is not an English word. - AFAIK is the short for "as far as I know", but 'AFAIK' is not an English word. - OMFS (omfs) is the short of "Oral and MaxilloFacial Surgery", but how would you think 'OMFS' is an English word? However, another way of short is ok; for a long word, people may shorten it by its first few letters, e.g. 'spec' for 'specification' only if it is widely recognizable. That's the short by "a short vs. a word", and not by "a short vs. a phrase". Ok, let's hear what Tim will say. Cheers.

It's hard to say if offs is acceptable, but I think it's OK for it to be included. As to omfs, it should be just an abbreviation belonging to the jargon of those who use it.
