Wot ppl need 2 undrstnd is dat dis iz merlee d strt ov a nu kind ov skriptur wer d yungr ppl r actuly advancin d languij by writin lik dis. Lik i bet wen dat xaminer dude woz yung he woz gettin pssd of dat he hd 2 rite e/ting n latin n sht. Dats wot its lik now 4 yungr ppl. Jnr Crt xaminers shud realis dat dis is d futr ov d nglish languij.

Dis is not jus 2 do wit shortnin spllings in order 4 dem 2 fit n a txt msg, its bout inventin a hole nu languij. Tings hav cum a long way sinc d era ov 'r u ok'. Now itsnt jus bout brevty, its bout txt spk as a languij. N who is 2 say dat iz rong r rite? Mor intrestnly, d xaminer sed dat d penchnt 4 txtn woz also causin Jnr Crt studnts 2 giv "shrt, shrp" ansrs 2 Qs dat mayb necesittd longr xamination. Dis wud indic8 dat its not jus dwn 2 ppl comunictn on der fone, its bout much mor den dat.

Txt spk has n fact mvd off d fone n online. Txt spk iz now d vernaclr ov online comcation wich 4 most yung ppl makes up d majorty ov comcation dey hav btween der peerz. Txt spk iz d only 4m of comcation ovr Bebo (wich ttly rox) n IM services lik MSN n AOL IM and MySpace IM. Dis evlution iz not jus 1 ov languij, bt also mrks a barrier btween generatuns, az oldr ppl can find it diffcult 2 decifer wot der kidz r actlly tkin bout. A generatun gap in languij use2 exist in fraziz yung ppl creatd dat wer den drided by oldr ppl. Now such frazology haz movd on2 d ritten r realy d typd word.

Dis iz d 1st time sinc d gldn age ov lttr ritin dat ppl r commcatin via d ritten wrd. Shudnt dat b celbrated rthr dan slamd, evn if d languij mite 'suffr' as sum quatrs seem2sugest? Dat sed, @ d same time we mite b raisin a genratun ov illiterats. Wot hppns wen dis genratun ov Jnr Crt studnts gets 2 colleg? R wen dey strt 2 get jobs? Wil der CVs b in txt spk? Wil a commnd ov d nglish languij b relugtd considrin evry1 ov a certin age group comunic8s in dis way @ d mo?
