Well, honey, the one- or two-letter code for an element is its chemical symbol. It's like a little secret handshake for chemists to identify elements without having to spell out their whole name. So, next time you see "H" for hydrogen or "O" for oxygen, just know it's not trying to be mysterious, it's just keeping it short and sweet.
