Default Dumb question from newbie - DH?

This is really dumb, I know, but I'm new at all this quilt lingo... what does DH stand for? I gather from context that it's a husband/partner, but what's it stand for?

D%^& Husband? Hadn't heard that one.

I'm in window work and DH means "double hung" sashes.

Oh dear let's not combine the meanings.
