“Yesterday ma mom bot me a new cellphn… how kewl is that… ehh!!”
Yes, it’s cool, and even cooler is that the same cellphone will now be used to send thousands of such meaningless texts!!
India
is a developing country, even then why the minds of some gems of our
generation aren’t developing is a big mystery. If you have been active
on facebook, you’ll know this kind of people. Ruthless, merciless, rude
and insensitive… towards English. They will roast, fry, bake and finally
tear off each word like it’s there own property. Ironically, they
noticed that I said ‘there’ instead of ‘their’ in my last sentence.
If I start giving examples, the list won’t end. But on the same time, their efforts are commendable. After all our so-called English speaking people have made their own vocab now. To exemplify, I have some words.
They’ve replaced “picture” with “pikta”. Yes, sounds as it is spelled. Weirdness has just started. The reason behind this change is that “pikta” is easy to type and sounds cool.
That reminds me the word “Cool” is now “Kewl” now I wonder why this transformation occurred, I mean typing kewl is even more time taking than the regular one with two o’s!!
“My” is now “ma”. So apparently “ma” is everywhere, ‘ma cellphone’, ‘ma bike’, ‘ma bag’ and ‘ma college’. The only bad thing is that our original ‘ma’ might not be proud of this.
One of the revolutionary word replacements is “lyk” instead of “like” now I think people will go clean their private jets in the time they saved by typing one less character!
The next spot is taken by ‘ba’ and ‘ny’, believe it or not, these are the replacements for ‘by’ and ‘any’. Kewl, isn’t it?
Recently this is something I read while I was browsing facebook.
“Congoz dude cary on… ol d bst fr the future”. But obvious, my comment
was “How come you spelled future correctly?”
Now that I think, I guess around 380 million people are speaking this 3rd most spoken language in the world. English must be pretty strong right? Well not stronger than us, we kill it every day!
Just imagine, the people who fail to understand how misinterpreted their words can be when they say “can u cum” instead of “Can you come”, how will they understand the actual tough concepts, like the difference between “its and it’s”, “Their, there, they’re”, “Than/then” and above all “Literally and figuratively”!!!
Now you must be thinking why this preaching all of a sudden? Have you ever got seen this status? “Hey ol, how r u… listen I got admit to clg… and ystrday was ma bday… u ol make ma liFE spEcial… THanku… ure ma sweet frnds… will miss ya…”
I saw it this morning, have been tensed since then.
I just want an answer to this query, “Whoever initiated this language, must’ve been a busy man. But did he not know that while he was busy murdering one of the most sophisticated languages in the world, there are hundreds of kids preparing for Spelling bee to honor the same!”
Now that I think, it’s not a one man task, it must have been a group thing. So we can say English has been gang raped.
Now this is something interesting I came across, not mine, credits to a page I found on facebook.
“Proper capitalization is the difference between helping your Uncle Jack off a horse and helping your uncle jack off a horse.”
So all in all, I request all, those who do, those who don’t and those who do but will say they don’t, please don’t kill this language. For the sake being kewl… err… cool, you don’t use such words, it makes you look like a fool! And please, you say ‘k’ instead of ‘ok’ the next time, I am gonna take an embarrassing pikta of u and post it to facebuk!!
