Quick question about abbreviations

[Upside Down Man]

Hey everyone,

I''ve been tooling around PS for a while now and noticed some abbrevations I was hoping someone could interpret for me.

IF - this appears to be the symbol for "fiance"? What does it stand for?

DH - this seems to be someone''s husband or wife. But again, I can''t figure out what it stands for.

SP - this appears to be some sort of online or B&M diamond vendor. WHo are they?

Thanks for helping out an old noob learn some new tricks.

IF means internally flawless - a clarity grade, FI means fiance.

DH - dear Husband

SP....don''t know that one!

SP- Signed Pieces/Facets

Doh! I thought I was mixing up IF and FI - but yes, "FI" is what I meant. Thanks.

IF Internally flawless or intended fiance''
DH Dear Husband, Duh hubby, or doomed human.....
SP Special person, significant person.....no idea if this refers to an on-line vendor.

Please forgive the above attempts at small humor......

You are welcome and thanks MrsSalvo for the SP! ROFL with the doomed human David! Upside down man, in case you encounter that one it means rolling on floor laughing!

David,

I just wanted to say thanks for taking the time to contribute to this forum. I''m originally from northeast Philadelphia, and when I first started diamond shopping it was in that area. I never made it to down to Sansom street, but I can tell you that your reputation made it all the way out to the suburbs. Just thought you''d like to know.
