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 is an internet abbreviation for 'in my humble opinion', formed from the phrase's first letters and used online to introduce a suggestion or personal view. Saying 'humble' signals you are offering a polite or gentle opinion.
