That's Very true. Taxting language is very popular among text users. It is easy, clear and can save us lots of time!
ReplyDeleteI agree with both of you. Texting is a modern, 'upgraded' version of the old-school pager. Send a text and wait for a text, or send a text and wait for a call back - seems simple enough to me!
ReplyDeleteBut I think that there is some limitation about texting. We only can understand people who does text. Like my grandma, she has no idea some of the term we use for texting.
