Ah, I think we all know the instantaneous pain of seeing a poorly constructed sentence, with shortened words such as u and lyk, (You and Like), even the miss use of They're/Their/There can get on anyone's nerves.
I'm just wondering why some people choose to do it? Even with the mass amounts of spell-check software and predictive text on the majority of devices I still notice this to be a huge problem.
I know the majority of people would just assume that it is a younger generation who are 'lazy' and 'hipster' and don't take any notice of correctly punctuating words and even spelling them to the full, but I have noticed it appearing in 16+ages.
I mean to be quite literal, I'm only 14. I may be more mature and well mannered than the majority of youth at my age, but I feel it is no exception.
You may also take into consideration that yes, I am British. The stereotypes flood into your head, that I enjoy eating scones and tea, but I don't. I absolutely hate tea and very much hate scones.
It doesn't help that I was originally brought up close to Birmingham, one of what I would consider the most ill mannered people in the UK, personal opinion obviously.
I would like to think that just because of where I was brought up, or where my hometown is, wouldn't change my ability to learn and speak correctly.
