Dw? Dh?

[cajunfla]

I have seen references to DW and DH and occasionally DS and DD. what the heck do these mean? All I can guess are Da Wife, Da Husband, Da Son and Da Daughter.

[Essiesmom]

D= dear, darn, dumb, etc. H=husband, D=daughter, and so on. EM

[cajunfla]

Got it! I was close.

I'm curious as to why these abbreviations are used? It was a little learning curve when I joined Cruise Critic but now I even find myself thinking in terms like DH DW etc :-)

[GUT2407]

DH - Dumb Husband

Waht is the last one????

 

The rest I can figure out.

[julie3fan]

Maybe dear grand daughter in law 2 times removed?

 

I personally like using DH because it's one less letter than typing Bob. But then again, some of you might not know who Bob is to me, so DH works better. :-)

I had a good friend who was an Englishman and a Barrister.

 

His DW didn't drive and was always referred to as "She Who Must be Conveyed".

So then, does TA stand for travel agent or transatlantic?

Depends on context. Sometimes it's hard to tell, tho.

 

CC: Cruise Critic or credit card or cruise consultant?
