Default abbreviations for newbies

Im not sure if there is a thread or post on this yet.
Many newbies dont know what the abbreviations mean
i.e nh, wd , wp, things like that.
May not respond in kind. It may be obvious to some, but not others. Then many do not speak english or very little of it.
Is there a list somewhere that newbies can use or look at
for these and the many other abbreviations? I didnt know what ul meant, just found out recently my self. Maybe a list would be helpful to some and help them feel more comfortable to chat at the tables. I also wouldnt mind a list that said hello in many of the languages of the players here. Its another way to "break the ice".

Has been done before. Probably a good while ago but you are quite right it's a good idea to re publish. I'll have a search to see if I can find the original because if I remember rightly it was a pretty definitive list.

Good idea. A list would be nice for the newbies.

I remember when I first started, I didn't have a clue what most of them meant. At least I had a good friend to help me with the ones I couldn't figure out, but I really felt stupid asking.
