    Both of you need each other, since neither can spell nor read. Your
    writing skills are dismal.

    This will be over your head...but don't they teach grammar or
    puncuation any longer?

    Her kind of "friendship" does not require any writing skills and speaking is
    limited to moaning.

    Nope, they teach text messaging abbreviations.

    Welcome to the future🙂

    where in that which we, old school types, used to admire for the colour
    and subtlety of its variations, the language is now reduced to shorthand
    notation of single letters, and the the idea of having to think about
    what is being said or written is looked upon as almost an insult by
    these "children of the future." *sigh* youth is wasted on the young.

    "Do We Need (Deep) Linguistic Processing?
    Much like the global economy, the stock exchange, and
    haute couture, natural language engineering exhibits a cyclic
    progression of dominating paradigms
    and development currents. And although Natural Language Engineering (the
    journal) has demonstrated a respectable degree of independence from the
    streams of fashion, we view the production of this Special Issue as an
    indicator of a new development: the return of precise linguistic
    grammars and constraint-based processing
    for practical applications."

    Welcome to the past. When I was a kid, I was a ham radio operator. It
    was just for a short while. Still, there were all kinds of esoteric
    shorthands. When it takes sometimes four keystrokes to make a single
    letter, spelling things out in full wasn't fun.

    I spent 25 years in computer software. We had many words that expressed
    many sentences worth of info. If both parties knew it, a lot of time
    was saved.

    Sometimes in the medical profession, a few seconds is the difference
    between life and death. Many words have been invented that express
    whole sentences.

    What about CB radio? Looks like we got us a convoy! It wasn't all about
    those stupid movies. I used CB to drive long distances and it sure came in
    handy.

    I can just see a TV series about truckers, staring Jill and
    called, "Beaver McQuown". Kinda has a nice ring to it, eh?

    Hmm - maybe there's even still a market for this kind of show.

    Something to consider before making future snarky judgements.

    I didn't start the topic. Just added to the mix. And of course you had to
    read it and reply when you saw my name, didn't you?

    Good point! Really, the whole "text message speak" thing annoys me. If I
    were attempting to hire someone and they wrote in such a manner they'd be
    tossed out the door before they even stepped through it. Can you picture
    their resumes? They may not be illiterate but they certainly come across as
    such.
