Note to self:
Acronym = Pronounced like ordinary words (NATO; UNICEF; ASEAN etc.)
Initialism = Pronounced letter by letter (US; UK; UN etc.)
Colloquial is stronger than informal (a general rule of thumb is that informal words may be used in the running text of a newspaper article, while a colloquial term would likely not appear without quotation marks).
