TXTALK

El uso de mensajes a través de los teléfonos celulares ha provocado la necesidad de escribir de forma conscisa; esto se ha logrado por medio de reducir las palabras a meras letras que, con el uso contínuo, llega a conocerse a veces mejor que el idioma materno entre nuestros estudiantes. Incluyo aquí algunas de esas frases en inglés:

TXTALK= text talk

AKA= as known as
ASA= as soon as
ASAP= as soon as possible
ATB= all the best
BBFN= bye bye for now
BBW= big beautiful woman
BRB= be right back
CYA= see you
CUL8R= see you later
CW2CU= can't wait to see you
FWD= forward
FYI= for your information
GR8= great
IYSS= if you say so
IMHO= in my humble opinion
LOL= laugh out loud
MHOTY= my hats of to you
MSG= message
OIC= oh, I see

OTT= over the top
PCM= please call me
