The users of social media communicate in their own language, it is different from what we used to write in letters during old offline times. Now it is not about \u2018Dear friend\u2019 or \u2018Let us meet again next year\u2019. New generation is not that formal; they casually communicate with their friends and any person they are close with. The online language is short form as you like to talk short and clear without wasting much time in typing. To express, you use emojis of different expressions and faces. We have a wide range of emoticons available on every social media platform. Most trendy emojis are the ones commonly used by people like The skull and The face with tears of joy emoji. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Abbreviation and acronyms <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Abbreviation and Acronyms are a shortened form of any phrase or sentence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We use initials of the main words used in a sentence or phrase. For instance, Get ready with me is termed as GRWM by fashion influencers. Abbreviations help us in avoiding repetition of long sentences or words as it is tiresome to write or speak it again and again. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why is it preferred by everyone?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Authors and Writers : Authors or writers make their own acronyms to develop a new kind of language or trend as it can create interest in the minds of readers. And it is profitable for the writer to get famous with a new vocabulary in his hand.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    1. Brands and Companies : There are many big brands whose name is the abbreviation of their whole purpose and vision. A brand name which can grab the attention of their targeted audience just by their name, can achieve stability in the long run. How? The brand \u201cMAC\u201d stands for \u201cMake-up Art Cosmetics\u201d. MAC itself sounds like Make and it clearly explains its purpose as it is now a prominent makeup products selling brand in the world.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      1. Students : For students, who need to attend lectures and match with the flow of a teacher’s lecture, use of short form can help them write easily without wasting much time and missing out on any important facts.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        1. Teachers : For teachers, it is important to give out every specific detail regarding the syllabus and chapters, but they have a limited time. Then use of abbreviations or acronyms can help you. You have to use that sentence or phrase for once and then you won\u2019t have to repeat it again. It will save a lot of time for you.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

          Texting in abbreviations is trendy nowadays with the introduction of new abbreviations every year. We have a new kind of vocabulary which is full of words like LOL, DM, IDK, etc. It is actually good to use abbreviations along with emojis.
