It got me thinking about the various abbreviations that singaporeans have devised in using in their everyday conversations. Be it in typing messages on mobile phones or everyday lingo, its a unique and integral part of our lives.
I sat down and came up with the following words...
Some common ones like:
tt- that
gr8- great
lol- laugh out loud
kiv- keep in view
lmao- laughing my ass off
rofl- rolling on floor laughing
imho- in my humble opinion
To the more complex or uncommon:
ote- one time event
ttyl- talk to you later
npov- neutral point of view
And even some obscenities:
knn- kiss night night
lmao, knn, its not really an obscenity...
Just to unwind my mind while idling....
Fyi, this came to my mind when i was revising for an upcoming test.
lol.
My list is not exhaustive and welcomes any additional words anytime...
