Just type in "abbreviations guide" in the search bar and it will take you to a post that has a link called Common Abbreviations. Or, you could PM one of the Moderators and I'm sure they can give you the link also.

Hi!
There is a list available to everyone, it has almost all of the common abbreviations used here. I actually have it open all the time for reference.
Hopefully, this is what you're talking about.
