Are you up-to-speed on prepper vernacular?<\/p>\n
Its true preparedness-minded individuals don’t speak the same language that the everyday person does. In the survival world, we have many acronyms for different phrases and sayings. For someone new to the community, it can be daunting. Survivalists and preppers have almost entirely different languages all on their own.<\/p>\n
So you can have an easy reference to refer back to when you need it, The Survival Journal’s Survival and Preparedness Glossary lists and explains the most commonly used words you’ll see in Survival guides.<\/p>\n
This is the official Survival Dictionary (index or glossary of terms), which includes some popular and some not so popular words, terms, slang, acronyms, abbreviations, phrases, and prepper jargon you’ll hear when talking about survival skills<\/a>. It’s certainly not the best list is can be but we’re happy to have it here and continue to improve it on a regular basis.<\/p>\n If you want us to explain a term or definition that we missed in this guide, tell us through the suggestion form<\/a> and we’ll make sure we cover it for you.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n For further information, see the Bushcraft Survival Skills guide<\/a>. and also the best bushcraft youtube channels<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/p>\n Stick around preppers long enough and you\u2019ll pick up more acronyms. Eventually, you\u2019ll be able to carry on entire conversations without saying an actual word, but in the meantime, this list should help you make some sense of what you may be reading.<\/p>\n Just know that learning the meaning of SHTF or any of these terms isn’t enough. There’s a lot of work to do to get yourself fully prepared.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Are you up-to-speed on prepper vernacular?
