Chat-Slang - The Term
The "Chat Slang" is a language form of its own, which is frequently used in chats. Usually the insiders and experienced chatter use this language form. It is about abbreviations of english words, as
well as sign and special sign. In 1982 a student came to the idea to imitate smilies with the help of brackets and other signs, out
of this the so-called "Emoticon" has developed. The name "Emoticon" comes from "emotion" and "icon" (little picture). Here you can find the most
important abbreviations and signs, which are frequently used in chats. From time to time there will be added new. A lot of fun with reading wishes you the "Chat Surium"!
