I Cnot BlEv dat U R unable 2 rED DIS msg. dun U spk eng?
Do you have trouble reading some of the creative shortcuts which come via SMS? It often appears as a language of its own. I laughed when sending a friend "TNX" in response to information he had provided. Seconds later my phone beeps again: "What's TNX?" was the message. As with any language, those who are familiar don't recognise the challenges it presents (think about this from a church perspective). Well, at least in relation to SMS, there is a place to solve your problem. transl8it.com allows you to type in an SMS message and have it converted into English, and vice versa. So if you cannot make sense of the opening sentence above, copy it, click here, and paste it into the appropriate section, et, Voila!!
Might prove handy in bookmarks, particularly if you have teenage kids!
