Do you have a abbreviation dictionary?

Hello, in many post and dev tracker, a lot of abbreviations are used and it is often difficult to follow a conversation.:confused:
Do you have a dictionary that lists the different abbreviations? Because I am not a english player and so initials of my powers are not the same.

    As a first-time MMO player here back in June '13, I sure could have used an English/Neverwinter translation dictionary. It was intimidating enough just trying not to die over and over (leveled up a DC first...) without starting uncomprehendingly at Zone chat.

    I asked about this months ago, so someone created an acronyms section in the NW Wiki.

    You can find it here:

    http://neverwinter.gamepedia.com/Help:Acronyms/Abbreviations
    SEC! SEC! SEC! SEC! SEC! SEC! SEC! SEC! SEC! SEC! SEC! SEC! SEC! (repeat indefinitely)

    pointsman said, "I don't rue the game. In fact I don't feel any regret for the game at all."
    looomis said, "I don't like people changing to alts and then bragging about their mains like schizophrenic role players."

    One important difference in that Wiki page:

    SW no longer refers to the Shadow Weaver armor set for Wizard - it now is the Scourge Warlock class. There may be other differences, but I'm too lazy to update that page. ;)

    I see a couple acronyms used that I don't understand.

    First is RP, it is usually used in the same context as AD. I get astral diamonds, but RP?

    Second is TT. This is used when referring to classes usually from what I have seen but not sure what it means either.

    There are several that I've seen around that aren't in the list, tho I
    don't understand them well enough to add them. ...And can't remember others.

    Hopefully a hardcore fan will see this thread and add more. Bookmarked tho. tyvm.
    Did you really think anyone could steal the power of the god of thieves?
