Otherwise known as
chatspeak, a process of shortening words and replacing letters with different letters and/or symbols to supposedly make the typing process shorter. Lacks proper punctuation and
capitalization. Hard to understand and a sign of idiocy when used heavily, but sometimes useful when in a hurry or
text messaging.
