SWDYT?........ AYATU?............... DW!. IWE...........
You might be thinking that the alphabets above might have been a typing error, No they are not . Its the new age of texting. A new way of communication.
wondering how? Let me give you the meaning.
SWDYT = So What Do You Thing
AYATU = Are You Able To Understand
DW = Dont Worry
IWE = I Will Explain
I am sure you cannot chat with a teenager these days without being heard that you don't know how to text, you would get a response "YR2ON" (meaning- you are too old now), for the simple reason that you cannot communicate in ACRONYMS or so called as the new age texting.
I am trying to give you an insight into some of the texting lingo that you might have thought with a different meaning.
Alphabetical Acronyms:
1. POTATO= Person Over Thirty Acting Twenty One.
2. PAL = Parents Are Listening
3. EMI = Excuse My Ignorance
4. GI= Google It
5. A3= Anytime, Anywhere, Anyplace.
6. T2G= Time to go
7. WOG= Wise Old Guy
8. NP = No Problem or Nosy Parents
9. NOA = Not Online Anymore
10. PAW = Parents Are Watching
11. PIR = Parent In Room
12. ACORN = A Completely Obsessive Really Nutty Person
13. SYS = See You Soon
Numbered Acronyms:
1. 9 = Parent is watching
2. 99 = Parent no longer watching
3. 4NR = Foreigner
4. 303 = Mom
5. 182 = I Hate You
6. 411 = Information
7. <3 = Heart
8. 143 = I Love you
There are many more of them which i may have missed out here, the list goes endless. Having seen a varied modes of communication, i am still getting accustomed to this new way of TTP "talking to people".
I am delighted that i have had a chance to learn my English in the age when not everything was twisted into an acronym. Anyways B4N "Bye for Now", TC "take Care", ONO "Over And Out".
If you have some more such interesting Acronyms, the so called Texting lingos, please feel free to share.
