Yes I agree.

The average "eejit" also believes that Desert Eagles are the best pistol ever, that AK-47's absolutely never malfunction, and that Counter-Strike is a realistic simulation of firearm physics. There's not much we can do about Mr. Average Eejit, but that does not mean we should allow ourselves to misinform people who seek out knowledge and information.

I have never heard anyone say DONT call an RPG a Rocket Propell Grenade. Guys I know in the military calls them that.

In the context of "rocket-propelled grenades", RPG is a transliteration of , the Russian РПГ or ручной противотанковый гранатомёт transliterated as "ruchnoy protivotankoviy granatomyot", which translates to the English phrase "hand-held anti-tank grenade launcher". Thus rocket-propelled grenade is a backronym and makes sense.

End of discussion. Excalibur wins the internet

Umm, no. Backronyms, by their definition, are incorrect.

You are using the word "transliteration" improperly, you win nothing.

ok, fine, I used the wrong word.

Let me rephrase using a different word.

In the context of "rocket-propelled grenades", RPG is a rough translation of the Russian acronym РПГ or ручной противотанковый гранатомёт transliterated as "ruchnoy protivotankoviy granatomyot", which translates to the English phrase "hand-held anti-tank grenade launcher". Thus rocket-propelled grenade is a backronym and makes sense.

So what? You point out I have bad grammar and that proves you're right?

Your grammar is not bad, and "rocket propelled grenade" is not a transliteration, rough translation, or good translation of "ruchnoy protivotankoviyy granatomyot". It is a backronym. Look up the definition of "backronym" if you want to discuss this further.

PersonofInterest, why can't you realize that you already lost.It's already been decided that Excalibur wins the internet

You are not the arbiter of all things internet.

I have the crown to prove it
