One of our readers was a bit more forthright than I when it came to asking about acronyms on our Facebook page.
We see them all the time, in texts, in Facebook statues and on Twitter. Some are creeping into verbal speech, such as lol (laugh out loud) and WTF.
I am of a rare breed who likes to spell everything out in full, I confess to using LOL perhaps once or twice in my 13-year texting history.
One of my favourite comments to our question was this: TEXT TALK MUST DIE = text talk must die. This particular reader is another in the same category as I - punctuation, spelling and grammar do not need to fall by the wayside just because you are using an electronic device.
I admit to struggling to read a lot of the comments we get on our page simply because people resort to using text speak, sorry, that should be txt spk.
