ACRONYM: Acronym CReatiON for You and Me
Each year, countless hours of productive research time is spent brainstorming creative acronyms for surveys, simulations, codes, and conferences.

The code returns all approximately-English-language words that appear within an input string of text, regardless of whether the letters occur at the beginning of the component words (in true astronomer fashion).
