numeronym

A numeronym is a number-based word. Most commonly a numeronym is a word where the number is used to form an abbreviation (albeit not an acronym or an initialism). Pronouncing the letters and numbers may sound similar to the full word: "K9" for "canine" (phonetically: "kay" + "nine"), and (in French) "K7" for "cassette" (phonetically: "ka" + "sept").

The following terms are used in their computing sense only and shouldn't be confused with similar terminology i.e. Globalization in the sense of software preparedness for global distribution,[3] rather than Globalization.
