Do all text messages have to be written in text speak?
I’m going to be getting a smartphone in the next couple of months, and I will learn how to text on it. I know that most messages are sent in an abbreviated language.
Is that standard? Will I have to learn text speak using “u” instead of “you” and “r” instead of “are,” for example?
How geeky will I appear, if I use standard English?
