Alacrity Dictionary
Started By
I am calling on all member's of Alacrity! It's time to formulate our own dictionary for use by everyone.

This is for any known words that mean certain things here on Alacrity that newcomer's may not always know the meaning of.

For example:

Abbreviation: TP
Words: Total Potential
Meaning: The maximum number that a dog can be trained


Please POST here with any words that you believe are special to Alacrity and have their own meanings here.

Use the following format please!

Abbreviation:
Words:
Meaning:

Looking forward to get this up and running in the next few days, so send in those suggestions as soon as possible.

Thank you everyone!

Please keep in mind that when your post is added to the list, it WILL BE deleted from these replies.


Alacrity Dictionary

Edit: I will be taking this over temporarily from Miss Wysper unless another administrator would like to handle it. I may not be able to update immedatiately, but I will do my best to get to it when I have the time. :) I will also only be updating commonly used phrases on Alacrity rather than newly proposed or lesser used ones if they are listed here. -JK
