y few ppl care for so much spelling mistakes here? its web v can use short forms......

There's a huge difference between chat language and troll language. Everyone can make a typo, but anda have to make sure people understand what you're trying to say.

If I find it hard to understand what somebody is trying to say, I just try harder, no biggie. I don't use txt language much, but I don't mind chatting with a someone here who wrts lke ds. What do I care? If it gets on my nerves, I ignore that person, simple as that. But when telling them to improve their grammar when anda feel like you're bothered sejak it, you're just wasting your time sejak doing it. atau anda could just ask that person, instead of shoving something in their face, as that happens a lot on here. People who complain about things like this should simply go and cry somewhere, to be blunt. This is still just a silly website and as long as you're not saying anything offensive, I think anda should be allowed to say it anyway anda want.

Because it makes those who use "Txt Tlk"/"Troll Language" (the official language of the moron culture) look like complete idiots who can't speak English right; and I, good sir, LOATHE idiots and I greatly disapprove of public display of idiocy. >B|

I'm not talking about those who aren't native speakers of English; THAT is the only case that is understandable.

Um...no, anda have a full freaking keyboard, anda can type without making yourself look like a lazy slob.

Now if anda where on the internet with your phone, I can understand, but with a computer, like I said, there is no need to make yourself look like a lazy slob.

Yeah, but to the point that people have no idea what you're saying atau that you're giving people the wrong idea?

ummm i like to do chat language to but sometimes it's to much and ppl don't understand it + some ppl here's first language isn't english ya know.. and they have no idea what your saying xD [my 1st isn't english to but i understand u cuz i'm used to it but still...]

Personally, The Chat Language (When Its Typed) Can be Confusing. Im Not Saying anda Cant Use It.. But Its Much Better When People Can Understand You. ^_^

Uzeing srt forms of wrds maks it hard 4 ppl 2 red wat u type.

No really it's not ok it's just being lazy.

it's very hard to read .. especially when english isn't your first language ...

It's probably because it's annoying to read.... Like, i'm not trying to be rude, but I find when people spell like that it's harder to understand them, same thing when people use all anugerah atau tHey TyPE liKE ThiS. That's why.

Because most people, like myself, can't understand what the hell you're saying. Or, also like me... they just cannot stand when there is a spelling mistake, atau they're a grammar Nazi.

Um... what?

Bee-Bo-Bee-Bee-Bee-Bo.

Ikr.....:o

No. No anda are not.

It's annoying and barely readable.

It's best to spell right because then people will understand what your saying.
if anda use letters for words, then anda might not ever know how to spell right.


ok, let's see what america thinks

I find it very annoying when people "tlk liek dis" because I can never understand them. So no, your not right, it may be the internet but that doesn't mean everyone can go around typing like a three tahun old with a computer.

I couldn't agree more! But the thing is it's hard for people to understand sometimes, and plus it makes anda forget to use proper english.
anda might start Penulisan sentences like this: da dog wnt ovr 2 da moon" in your English exam.

But is people have problems with Membaca something like that, then they should just ask politely instead of making rude komen-komen and shoving their "proper English" into other's faces as if they are illiterate.

anda have to spell right,even if it is the internet.Spelling "liek dis" is really hard for people who doesn't understand English to know what your talking about.Plus,it's troll talk and is also annoying.

Well,no i dont really agree with you.yes,you can use SMS language when anda are chatting with someone who anda know WILL understand you,but here,like there's people whose first language isnt english,so its hard for them to know what anda are saying.There's people i know on here personally who cant answer some soalan coz they dont know what anda are saying...and its bad for your tests.Before anda know it,you have shortened everything in your papers and your teacher doesnt know WTF anda are saying.people dont mind when anda use short forms like PPL,WTF,IDK,IKR coz everybody knows what they mean.

read all the above jawapan and anda get your answers

To be honest, for the most part, it's only courtesy. It's polite to allow other people to understand what you're saying with too much hassle.
It's also polite to try to break the habbit if a large number of people mention that you're difficult to understand (in a polite way! If they tell anda you're stupid and the grammar nazis are going to kill you, forget them)

The people who complain when someone uses "y" instead of "why" are simply condescending and trying to be difficult. Disregard them.

I think you're fine. I can understand everything you're saying perfectly, and so can everyone else who properly answered this question. (If they couldn't read it, they wouldn't be able to answer)

If i can read it then i dont really care for spelling mistakes as i always make them. If i cant read then i will ask what they said. i always use txt speech because i want to and its my life.

Because unlike some people, I can't understand most text talk, and if I don't understand, then frankly it's not something I should waste my time deciphering. It also makes someone look completely lazy and ignorant in using ACTUAL GRAMMATICAL LANGUAGE.

I'd be much happier if people talked not using text talk.

Are anda really that lazy to type out 2-3 lebih letters? atau use capitalization and/or punctuation marks?

*Why
*People
*It's
*Am
*I

Not even sure what 'v' is, so I'm not going to say anything about that.

Unless you're a walking dictionary, I don't expect anda to spell everything correctly. At least try to spell as best as anda can. I find chat speak/troll speak very similar and it does annoy me, I'm not going to lie. Almost as much as people who abuse grammar.

I can not answer this soalan because the translater didn't translate it for me. :l

Spelling is lebih important than anda think. Correct spelling means that anda are actually educated in the ways of the english language.

Incorrect spelling means that you're stupid, lazy, and anda apparently never went to school.

Because I can not understand half of the shit anda are saying. -.- WE WANT TO UNDERSTAND PEOPLE. NOT BE INTERNET TRANSLATORS.

There are websites that require full spelling, proper grammar, capitalization, etc. FANPOP, Tumblr, Facebook (sadly some people ignore this one), Pophangover, etc are some examples. Chat language shouldn't exist. I hate it. It'sonly allowed in CHATTING, like direct messaging, hence the name CHAT language. But if it's a post atau komen atau something, it. Needs. To. Be. Spelled. Correctly.

Spelling also says that you're educated and bothered to learn proper ways. If anda type like that, it just makes anda look fucking stupid and lazy.

(Huge fucking Grammar Nazi right here.)

Personally, I think the only acceptable shortened word is "u". The rest is just sad.

Well I don't like when people freak out at others if they simply spell a word wrong. That's when we call them grammar nazis! But if we were to take the way anda wrote this soalan into account........ "Why do people care so much about spelling errors on Fanpop? It's the internet. We can use short forms if we want to."

No anda cannot use short forms on the web, think of it like the real world. Your soalan isn't proper in any way...y is a letter not a word, few means very little not the same thing as do, ppl should not be short for people, it should be care so much for not care for so much, its should have a apostrophe and be capitalized as well as the should be in between it's and web, v is not even a letter in we, m is not short for am, I should be capitalized...that about covers it. Not everybody has English as their first language so text lingo ends up confusing them far worse than the full word would.
