back·ro·nym

An acronym deliberately formed from a phrase whose initial letters spell out a particular word or words, either to create a memorable name or as a fanciful explanation of a word's origin.

"Biodiversity Serving Our Nation", or BISON

(from https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/backronym)

Complete the function to create backronyms. Transform the given string (without spaces) to a backronym, using the preloaded dictionary and return a string of words, separated with a single space (but no trailing spaces).

The keys of the preloaded dictionary are uppercase letters A-Z and the values are predetermined words, for example:

dict["P"] == "perfect"

Examples

"dgm" ==> "disturbing gregarious mustache"

"lkj" ==> "literal klingon joke"
