How Internet English Is Different from Casual English

Since so much of our communication today happens online, the Internet has developed almost its own language. This language is even more casual and has many abbreviations (shortenings of words and phrases).

Before you dive into the world of Internet English, remember that there are many profanities and curses in Internet slang, and sometimes words are misspelled or used incorrectly. Many of the words people use online all the time would not be used in face-to-face communication. So learn this side of English only for online use!

The English language is always changing, though at a slow pace. Online, everything happens much faster. The language changes almost every day, as sayings, images and videos “go viral” (spread from person to person very quickly). You might come online one day to see everyone sharing a new picture, or see a new saying that you have never seen before.

            Internet Slang and Abbreviations

          When you tell someone goodbye, you usually just say “bye.” This is a shortening way that was created to save time since the word “goodbye” is so common.

The same is true for the Internet! Much of Internet slang is made up of abbreviations and shortenings. Here some of the most commonly used Internet abbreviations:

·       lol — laughing out loud

·       brb — be right back

·       btw — by the way

·       lmk — let me know

·       g2g — got to go

          If you can’t figure out what a certain abbreviation stands for, try checking Google. Just search for “what does [abbreviation] stand for?” and replace the [abbreviation] with the term you’re confused about.

Meme

The word “meme” has been around longer than the Internet. Outside the Internet, the word describes a part of culture that developed because it was passed on from one person to another, usually by imitation. A meme can be an idea, a tune, an image—anything that can be passed on and altered. Online, though, a meme is an image, text or video that’s copied  and modified over and over again. Most of the time, people add their own funny change to the image or text.
