You don't pronounce the Humvee as HMM--WV, therefore AT- AT not A,T,A,T

It's AT-ST (aytee-estee), so no reason AT-AT should be said differently.

No, that one is called the "Chicken Walker"

Therefore the CRAZY_HOT scale is still valid.

For the same reason the Empire called the Stormtroopers by the full letter-number designation, they called the walkers A-tee A-tee.

I feel like they should change it to an ST-AT. That way we could get lines like, "Get in there, STAT!"

Agree on the first, disagree on the second.

lol....pretty simple "rule" on Acronyms....vs. Initialism

Acronym - if it's pronounceable it often/usually becomes the pronounced word.....thus "at-at"....

Initialism - but if it is not really pronounceable as a word it stays as the letters ...like "AT-ST"...you can't say "atst" very easily.



thus you have pronounced acronyms:
SCUBA
SIM card
LASER
RADAR
ZIP code
OPEC
RAM
HUMVEE although its spelled HMMWV but that was too hard to say as letters also
SNAFU
AWOL

and others that are just the letters cuz you can't make it sound like a word easily
CIA
FBI
DVD
IBM

and some that are combinations:
CD-ROM

Both are forms of abbreviations, but abbreviations also include shortened words like OCT for "October", or Mr. for "Mister"


and it's settled...
