Short words in the net/Сокращения в сети Internet our most usable service of all time, we speak here with other people by text messaging services or through the voice. What type of short text messages do you use in real life in the net or sms serivces? Something like "C ya l8r" or "U" instead of "you", what else ? In Russia we use words like: Прю, даров, хай (Привет) - Hello (Hi) ГГ (Гы Гы) - it is like... lol may be in English Слы (Слыш) - Listen or may be Yo :) Бро (Братюнь) - It means Brother but in the meaning of "He is my Bro, i will kill you for him" :) Может кто-то добавит больше. Если честно я сам стараюсь не использовать сокращения, т.к. во многом это уродует язык. May be someone write more variants. BTW i'm trying not to use "shorts" (how it is called in English ?) because it is uglify the language. c ya l8r ;)
