AV acronyms?

I finally reached level 51 with my shaman today, and naturally set out to find out what this AV business was all about.
I'm pretty familiar with WSG and AB, and I've read a little about AV beforehand, so I didn't feel completely out of my element once I got in. The chat however gave me a pause. Half the time I couldn't tell what our raid leader wanted because I couldn't understand what the AV spesific acronyms meant.

So, can someone list all the usual shorthands used in this BG, or perhaps give me a link to a place where I can read about it?
Thanks in advance...

hmmmm sure....

O = Offense, or the guys charging North (if yer horde)
D = Defense, or the guys defending in the south (if yer horde)
FW RH = FrostWolf Relief Hut also refered to as RH, Horde base GY
FW GY = FrostWolf Graveyard
IB GY = IceBlood Graveyard
SF GY = SnowFall Graveyard
SH GY = StoneHearth Graveyard
SP GY = StormPike Graveyard
SP AS = StormPike Aid Station, Alli base Graveyard
North Tower = Alli north tower in thier base
South Tower = Alli south tower in thier base
East Tower = FrostWolf East tower in horde base
West Tower = FrostWof West tower in horde base
TP = Tower Point, the tower just south of IB GY
IB tower = IceBlood Bunker
SH Bunker = StoneHearth Bunker
IW Bunker = Ice Wing bunker, tower just north of SH GY
Galv = Captain Galvinger, Hordes captain due west of IB tower
Bal = Catain Balinda, Alli captain due South of SH GY
Vann = Alli General Vanndar
Drek = Horde General Drek'Thralajamma..... whateva


think that about covers it

example - D 5 to IB GY 5 to Galv = Hey Defense 5 people go to IceBlood Graveyard and 5 people go to Capatin Galvanger's room

In my experience, the frostwolf relief hut is simply "hut", and aid station becomes, well, "aidstation". And oftentimes the gy bit is left out, so SH simply means stoneheart graveyard, with "SH bunk(er)" for the bunker.
