Anthem for Teenagers



Our kids are usually a lot more talkative than this. Not looking forward to Nope, Yup, Maybe... too much. My daughter is already using sms speak in some of her notes from school. It makes me feel icky. Call me a curmudgeon, but there is plenty time for lazy writing later in life.

Thanks FXH

SMS = Sending Messages Suks

Not being much of an SMS type of guy, this is useful.

I find the impact of SMS on written English very jarring. What to say? I am over 40 and a bit of a stickler on spelling and the like. Of course you can use the programme in reverse for those tricky indecipherable cryptic notes that sometimes appear on my phone.

Translation for our more smsavvy viewers as follows.
