AN LAYMAN'S GUIDE TO HOME OFFICE ACRONYM PRONUNCIATIONS

It's always fun to go down to a department flag ceremony and see everyone neatly line up behind their respective office's marker. It's even more fun to just listen to everyone babble out all the other offices' names phonetically -- na-route mo na ba yung memo ng OSEC? Nasa OUP pa, dadaan ng OPPC, tapos ASPAC, ASEAN, at OMEAA. Oks? 

Anyway, some offices' names roll off the tongue easier than others. The rest are just fun to play around with.

 Sounds Like:
"oh, wow"


 Use in a Sentence:
"ola, donde esta courtesy lane?" 


 Sounds Like: 
the aforementioned "oks"


Sounds Like:
a relaxing meditation chant


Sounds Like:
a relaxing meditation chant, followed by a cleansing exhale


 Use in a Sentence:
"old macdonald had a farm..ias ias oh"


 Use in a Sentence:
"D! L! L! U! DLLU...Derecho, La Salle!"


Use in a Sentence:
"you down with OPD (yeah you know me)"


Sounds Like:
"oy vey" 


 Sounds Like:
"oy vey" (with a twang) 


 Sounds Like:
"weirdo", in tadbaliks
