Morphology

An abbreviation/initialism with multiple possible expansions; the letters alone do not transparently indicate meaning without contextual expansion.

RFS is an abbreviation made from the first letters of phrases like Request for Service or Remote File System. Think 'request' when you ask for help and 'remote file' when you open files on another computer, so RFS can mean either one depending on the context.
