Of, relating to, or of the nature of an acronym; constructed from acronyms.
From 'acronym' plus the suffix '-ous,' meaning 'having the quality of or characterized by.' Formed similarly to words like 'synonymous' or 'homonymous.'
Just like 'synonymous' means 'having the same name,' acronymous means 'made from names'—military and tech language is increasingly acronymous, which makes it harder for regular people to understand!
