The acronym "TWD" is spelled using the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) as /ti wi di/. The first two letters, "T" and "W", are pronounced as they are written in English. The third letter, "D", is pronounced as a voiced dental plosive sound, much like the "d" in "day". When pronounced together, the resulting sound is a quick and clipped utterance, indicating the abbreviation of the phrase "The Walking Dead". As such, TWD has become a popular shorthand reference for the popular TV series of the same name.
