The term proposed to describe intentional and unintentional errors in
English spelling and grammar belonging (but not limited) to the following categories:
Phonetic errors:
Using the incorrect word, based on its prenouciation
(i.e. its/it's, you're/youre/your, bear/bare, etc.)
Leet/Gamer/Warez Speak:
Errors resulting from quick typing, replacing suffixes -er with -or, etc. Words spelled using numeric characters such as "H4RDC0R3 1337 SP34K" should be excluded from this list.
(i.e. teh, suxxor, haxorz, warez, pwnage).
LOLcat lingo:
Distortion of
English grammar and spelling intended to give it a silly/cute appeal. (Yes, it can include the Walrus)
(i.e. I can has cheesburger, They be stealin mah bukit)
The name "inglish" can be understood both as an abbreviation of "
Internet English" or as misspelled phonetic representation of the word "English". It is spelled without the capitalization, as it is not an actual language.
