首字母縮寫是由每個單詞的第一個字母組合而成的,比如UN就是指United Nations。簡訊裡,首字母縮寫常常被用在習慣用語中。另外,發聲相似的詞會被字母取代。
OIC- Oh I see.
BRB - Be right back
BFN - Bye for now
LOL - Laughing out loud
ASAP - As soon as possible
BTW - By the way
FYI - For your information
JK - Just kidding
TTYL - Talk to you later
Contractions縮略
簡訊的縮略詞不是指一些約定俗成的"don't" 或 "they're"之類的縮略,但兩者的目的是一樣的:即當意思很清楚的時候可將一些不需要的詞省略。元音常常會被省略,但是你仍然可以保留這個詞的大概 發言。數字8有時候會發eight,所以later就寫成l8r。數字4通常也被取代成for,就像2這個音就替代了to。
Plz - Please
Thx - Thanks
Cya - See you
L8r - Later
K - OK
U - You
R - Are
B4 - Before
2morro - Tomorrow
asl=age sex 地址 英文聊天開場最常用的對白,三個字母相應的代替了三句話,分別是how old are you? male or female? and where are you from? 一句話,我們的原則是越簡單越好。
cuz/cos=because 因為的縮寫
2=to 數字代替了字母
u/ya=you 你
howr u/h r u=how are you 你好嗎?你怎麼樣?
me 2=me too 我也是
brb=be right back 一會兒回來的說法
wb=welcome back 當一會兒回來的人回來的時候,你可以說歡迎回來,很禮貌的說法。
sup=what'sup 這個是熟人之間問好的常用形式,就好比中國人見面問「嘛呢?"回答就直接告訴別人你正在忙什麼,如果沒什麼特別的可以回答notmuch/nothing speical,這就是最地道的表達。千萬別以為sup就是supper,跟吃一點關係都沒有。
uni=university 大學的縮寫,在英語中,很多比較長的詞都有特殊的縮寫,大概美國人比較懶。
gvmt=government 政府的縮寫
goodnite/nite=good night晚安
yes/yep/yeah 「好」的幾種表達
no/nope/nah 「不」的幾種表達,個人認為總說no太單調,而且也太生硬了,可以試著其它的兩種回答
gotdc=got disconnected 聊到一半時,卻掉線了,這個時候應該怎麼說呢?gotdc是比較簡單的表達。還有一種情況,就是電腦突然定住,需要重起,當你再度上線的時候,可以說my pcfroze,我們用"凍"這個詞,是比較生動貼切的。
wanna=want to 想要...
gotta=got to 要...樣
gonna=going to 要去...
cya/c u=see you 再見的縮寫
dunno=don't know 不知道的縮寫
kinda=kind of 一種...
prob'ly=probably 很有可能...
lemme=let me 讓我...
n=and 和
r=are/our 是
gimme=give me 給我...
yrw=you are welcome 不客氣
pvt=private 私人的
lota=lot of 很多
t/c=take care 保重的縮寫,聊到最後要離開,說完再見還可以說一句保重,顯得很有禮貌。或者,家裡的客人要離開,送到門口時常常會說一句保重之類的話,英文的說法就是take care。
favo=favorite 最喜歡的
4=for 為...
b4=before 以前
j/k=justkidding 開玩笑的縮寫,也可以說just joking,一般程度的開玩笑就可以說just kidding/justjoking,如果某人說了一件另你感到吃驚的事,你可以反問"you kidding?", 更深程度表達吃驚的用法是"you got to bekidding me?"如果這樣說了,那就表示這件事是你做夢都沒想到的。
ain't=be not 不是
nvm=never mind 別介意
msg=message 信息
luv=love 愛
bro=brother 兄弟
sis=sister 姐妹
doc=doctor 醫生
sorta=sort of 一種...
outa=out of ...之外
O.J.=orange juice桔汁的縮寫
thanx=thanks
sms 經常發簡訊,那麼發簡訊的正確說法是什麼呢?可以說send a message,但更簡單的說法是sms,你可以說 i will sms you,此外,sms的正確讀音是[esmes]。
gtg=gotta go 表示要走了,這句話的用途很廣泛,想下線的時候可以這樣說,在真實生活中也很常用,聊電話想掛的時候除了說hang up外,也可以說gotta go。
lol=laugh of lot 英文聊天中出現頻率最高的幾個詞之一,其實就是彪悍的笑,如果你不打haha的話,這個lol也可以表示大笑,並且三個字母組合起來的圖案就如某人大笑的嘴,很是生動。
