Chatspeak

Chatspeak, aka netspeak. This is a form of speech in which one shortens words and replaces the letter "s" with the letter "z" in an effort to save time and look cool. Chatspeakers also rarely use capitalization or correct punctuation.

Chatspeakers are generally looked down on by people who can actually spell and who have enough self-respect to type out a real sentence.

Chatspeak can never be considered 'literate.'

Examples:
Boys- Boiz
Girls- girlz, grlz, grrlz, gurlz
Mate- m8
Skater- sk8er
You- u
Are- r
Tonight- 2nite
Because- Bcuz

Et cetera.

Chatstanding

In a large corporate Zoom/Teams meeting, attendees with nothing to add to the conversation make up for it with banal, cheerleading and good vibes in the meeting chat to make sure they are seen.

Not sure why Bob was in that meeting, but boy was he chatstanding with his shallow words of encouragement and inappropriate memes.
