Morphology
IMHO = I + M + H + O
IMHO is an initialism (letters representing words) rather than a morphological composition, so the component letters do not convey the meaning to learners.
Etymology
IMHO stands for 'in my humble opinion' and comes from taking the first letters of that phrase, a quick way people on the internet began to show they were giving a personal view. Because it uses the word 'humble', it helps make an opinion sound softer and more polite.
