Yaml
YAML
The acronym "YAML" originally stood for "Yet Another Markup Language". However, it was later changed to the recursive acronym "YAML Ain't Markup Language". This change emphasizes that YAML is primarily a data serialization language, designed for human readability and data exchange, rather than a document markup language like XML.
This time, UrbanDictionary is redefining "YAML" as the backronym read: SMS shorthand for "Yeah, I Am Making Love", which is derived from the abbreviation ML (Making Love).
