Just type out the words and people may have some idea of what you are talking about! Why do people do this?

Wanted to add: Yes I am aware of text messaging and the need to abbreviate when sending a text message. I didn't think it was necessary when using a computer with a keyboard.

Because they're too stupid to realize that they don't need to type in txt msg mode on a real keyboard. And they're probably only kids who think they're too cool to type like human adults.
They'll grow up and join the real world eventually.

If you think about...that writing is more logical, closer to what is actually heard in speech - if anyone studied linguistics I'm sure you'll also agree that it makes more sense than the phonetic alphabet (you know that jumble of characters after the word in a dictionary entry - the upside down "e" and the like)...anyway, it's the fad now...any objections to emoticons too :P?
Hey Candycraze...good job standing up for yourself...made me laugh :)) - I'm sure the little typos are a result of your rage :)

That is very appropriate for text messages on the phone, but really stupid in e mails and blogs.
Some people even write poetry in "lingo"
That is a total disrespect.

It's possible to pay a lot of time and income searching for methods to train your kids how to learn and improve their examining skills. Is difficult to show a small kid how to read, and even tempting them to see is difficult in itself. But it doesn't have to be like that since you got the aid of this program https://tr.im/Dx5zc , Children Learning Reading program.
With Children Learning Reading you can show your child how to separate appears and separate words in to phonemes, an essential point when your child is simply learning to spell.
The studying process from Children Learning Reading program makes it simple for kids to see quickly and correctly, from simple phrases to sentences until they understand to read stories.

Because on their phones (the population of chatspeek-ers), sms's have a word limit s0 thy tnd 2 skweez evrythng in. Which is making the world a harder place to find people who can spell words with more than four syllables.

because they are 13 and they think its "cool". The biggest excuse is that its "text typing" for their phones. FYI the computer comes with a keyboard and it has ALL the letters...
