[aleco]

[leetr0x0rz]

i say it powned emphasis on the o

[Privateer]

Take it out of your sig if you don't say it right...JESUS!

[Sfrius]

Hey, why doesn't anyone say iwnd or kwnd or maybe even lwned. They are right next to the o, but you've never seen that before. Because pwned is an acronym for "power owned." Accept your fate newbies.

[Mwerp]

Because pwned is an acronym for "power owned."

That's funny

[MalReynolds]

I never thought of that before. Damn clever!

An Acronym would be "PO" for power owned. It would be pronounced "Poh". A Typical abbreviation, non acromyn would be "PO", pronounced "Pee Oh" for the letters.

Of course, one could do other ABBREVIATIONS, but only one acromyn.

You could combine the two into a nontypical acromyyn like powned I suppose...but I woudnt call that an acromyn jusy cause.

This is crazy.
Pawned is a chess term. The "a" could have gotten edited out to abbreviate. The "e" might have been edited at one time also, but it didn't catch on.
Owned is a ... whatever term. I myself hit the "p" instead of the "o" all the time. Some might have seen someone make a typo and just thought it meant something and used it. Things like this get around these days.

PWNED would be pronounced pwan-d or pawn-d. The "d" almost acts as a second sylable.

[QreepyBORIS]

Pawned is not a chess term, you lose.

"I pawned so and so" mean that you sold, to a pawn shop, for little money, so and so.
