    Question What does ASAP means?

    Hi, I'm a big fan of action movies and in some of them I have seen that the actors usually shout this "ASAP" word.
    What does it mean?
    Do yo know anyone else? Like LZ o other?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello matiasc,
    It means As Soon As Possible. It's used to get things sooner.
    I don't know LZ. Wait for other comments.

    Daniel is correct:

    ASAP= As Soon As Possible

    LZ= probably means Landing Zone if it's in a military context (for helicopter borne troops, for example).

    Thanks to both... I've checked in Google and it appears as Landing Zone, as Vicente said.
    Thanks!

    ASAP = As soon as possible
    EOD = End of day
    EOB = End of business day (while the previous abbreviation refers to 23:59, this one refers to 18:00, the time when business day usually ends)
