Without searching for the meaning, tell me what a backronym is. Either the right answer or the most creative answer gets the best response!

Examples of backronym are "olats" , "dehins" , " damatans" etc. last syllable or last letter of the original word must come first. Backronym, bow!

I have no idea. I would have to guess that it is an acronym using the last letters of the words. For example, USA stands for United States of America, the backronym would be DSA.

I belive a backronym is the backward word of something. An example would probably be 'dog' and 'god'.
