Thanks for your post and I can understand the difficulties but the whole idea of using those abbreviations is so we won't give away the secret by actually naming the item. For instance, we use 'TT' and 'IT' a lot, if we used the full wording it would immediately tell everyone what was being used.
As for youtube vids, many members post such links to illustrate matters but more often than not the youtube videos are poor quality, often done by inexperienced performers who just give the secrets away. Other vids there set out deliberately to expose so we tend to view youtube with great suspicion! If anyone posts a link to a good performance than that's fine, we can all enjoy that!
