texting language
LOL and BRB
Texting language is the abbreviated, informal writing style that developed with mobile phone text messaging.
It includes shorthand like u for you, 2 for to or too, lol for laughing out loud, and brb for be right back.
The style prioritizes speed over standard spelling and grammar, though it has become less necessary as phone keyboards improved.
Also called text speak or SMS language.
