An Academic Look at IMY

IMY is an initialism abbreviation. Technically, this means it is pronounced using its individual letters (i.e., Eye Emm Why). However, as the abbreviation IMY is typically used for efficiency in writing and not efficiency in speech, it is not often said using its letters. Initialisms contrast with acronyms, which are spoken like words.
