FYR: For Your Reference
FYR is an abbreviation of "For Your Reference".
It is an expression, which is commonly used in the Gmail platform. It is written as a follow-up message for the information that is already known to the recipient.
Let us take an example to make it easy to understand.
In an email, if it is written:
PFA doc file of the article FYR.
This shows that the document sent is for the reference of the recipient.
Now, these days, the demands of acronyms are very high on social media online chatting or messaging, so the users usually use FYR as a replacement for For Your Reference.
So, in this way, the abbreviation FYR is used mostly on the social media platform.
While this slang is very common in social media platforms, mainly email messaging, still many are unaware of this slang.
So, basically in emails if it is written at the end of the mail or in-between as FYR, it means that the mail is for the reference of the receiver and he already knows about it. Whenever you want to send someone a mail that is already known to the other person or asked by the other person you can use FYR instead of For Your Reference.
