Hows u
Hows u is short for; “How are you?” -Or- “How are you doing?”
But it also depends in which sentence you use it.
Like for instance if u say; “hows ur studies doing?” Then it would mean; “How are ur studies doing?
So let’s say its more like when u put “u” or “ur” that changes the meaning of the word a bit.
-Hows u?
-I am doing fine ty and u?
-I am ok!
------------------------- ------------
-Hows ur gf/bf doing?
-He/She is doing just fine, ty and u?
-I’m doing ok.
