What do you guys mean by the acronyms:
BOKEH
and
ADITL?
"Bokeh" is not an acronym, but rather an English transliteration of
a Japanese word. ADITL, on the other hand, *is* an acronym,
standing for "A Day In The Life."

Sorry Garth but ADITL is an abbreviation or a set of initials.
An acronym is a complete name that has been composed from an
abbreviation or set of initials, such as Radar or Laser. The British
organisation ASH (Action against Smoking for Health) is an
abbreviation but is enough like a proper word to be considered an
acronym.
