ABC

Easy as pie

ABC is typically used as a plural noun, spelled ABCs or ABC’s.

It designates the entire Roman alphabet and, by extension, the rudiments of a subject that one must master before going on to the more complicated parts: the ABCs of AIDS prevention.

ABC is also the name of two broadcasting networks, one in the U.S., and one in Australia.
