We have been using the abbreviation ‘Wi Fi’ and many of us not even knowing the full form of Wi Fi! Thus, there are thousands of abbreviations that exist in our lives. We may not be in a position to know them all. Here in I have made an effort to write the expanded form of few abbreviations, which I thought are important.
So, I come back to the basics, and tell you many unknown things which we take them for granted in our day to day lives. This allows to let me give you another shocker: We all know that i.e., stands for ‘that is’ It is so? The fact is i.e., stands for ‘id est.’ which means ‘that is’ in Latin Language.

About the Author
Dr. K. Raja Gopal Reddy is a seasoned internationally qualified Insurance professional.
What you are reading here, may not answer all the questions we have, but has the absolute power of asking unsettling questions which increase the interest in the strange world, and show the contradictory wonders lying just below the surface of the commonest things of life. Look at this disturbing but beautiful thought of Friedrich Nietzsche “God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him”.
