internet speech

see also text talk.

A form of speech popularized by teens and young adults who spend too much time on the internet. This is similar to text talk, however shortened phrases and words commonly used on forums, email, and social media are being said out loud in regular speech. Most commonly referred as an online form of speech, where it only happens in text form when on the internet, but that's not always the case.
I spoke in internet speech to my friends, and they could barely understand me.
