ՀՅԴ (HYD)

  1. Initialism of Հայ Յեղափոխական Դաշնակցութիւն (Hay Yeġapʻoxakan Dašnakcʻutʻiwn, Armenian Revolutionary Federation, ARF).

Usage notes edit

Even though the spelling of the initialism is based on the traditional orthography spelling of հեղափոխական (heġapʻoxakan), the -Յ- (-Y-) is usually retained even in texts using the reformed orthography. The Eastern Armenian pronunciation is a spelling pronunciation.
