Electronic text messages are used to convey information through email, IM, chat rooms, SMS etc, and it is getting popular these days. It is an easy and efficient means of communication where simple text message is transferred through various electronic devices such as computers, mobile phones, fax etc. from the sender to the recipient. For shortening the text message, conveying more information, and to reduce the time for typing long sentences into a short SMS or text messages, people use abbreviations. Abbreviations helps to complete the entire message within 160 characters SMS or 140 characters in most of the social network text input boxes. Using abbreviations for texting has become more of a fashion trend and also saves more time. Today's world is all about using shortcuts with the wide usage of electronic communication mediums and finding fast ways of doing something, so text abbreviations and symbols come in handy.
There are an infinite number of common text message abbreviations used today. Sometimes it can be hard to keep up with the new abbreviations and text message symbols that keep popping up each and everyday. Here I put a list of the commonly used text and SMS message abbreviations which helps you to send an important message across.
