Standard English, as it was written before the arrival of the text phone and chatroom etc, used to have a grammatical syntax that was almost the unbendable law of writing. Now with messages such as
thx 4 th cfee
C U later
etc etc
I just wondered if anyone believes the English language of this style will be adopted as legitimate and that dictionaries (authoritative dictionaries such as the Oxford English (dont know what the authoritative USA dictionary is)) will
adopt this style of English quite soon.
In other words
d'ya thnk wrds lk ths ll B incorporated and standardised too
perhaps with a grammatical structure thats fitting?
