NT stands for neurotypical. It refers to a person without Asperger's or any other autistic spectrum condition.

Some, like myself, also use NA to mean the same thing: a non-Autistic person. So don't be surprised if you see that one, too. :)

NT also stands for "Nice Try".

Which I think rather sums up us non ASD types rather well....
