Imagine an "acronym" but instead of taking the first letter of each word, you took the entire first syllable of each word. I notice Japan, which incidentally has a syllabary, seems to create this sort of "acronym" fairly often.

Is there a word, like a linguistics word, for this type of syllabic "acronym"?

@mcc
German does that all the time, but I don't know of any specific term for this.
@slowtiger @mcc I’m having trouble imagining words so long that German needs to shorten them
@ShadSterling @mcc
We do that for daily use: "Landesamt für Gesundheit und Soziales Berlin" becomes "Lageso".
