It stands for What You See Is What You Get. It is used to describe programs such as Dreamweaver, Frontpage etc (in a web design context) as how you manipulate the page using the menus and stuff it is what you will see when you look at it in a browser.

Hope this helps

Thank you, Stoot. This is my first time to post thread on a forum in english. I think webmaster-talk is a wonderful place for those who is operating a website. And the forum is well attended. I'd like to go here frequently. Glad to meet you again.

Also worth mentioning that WYSIWYG is commonly pronounced "wizzy wig" in speech. So in case you're talking to someone about it or you're part of the large population who sub-vocalizes while they read, that'll save you from saying "W-Y-S-I-W-Y-G"
