Se non capite lo slang usato in certi newsgroup...
You've probably already seen this, but in case you haven't you should check out A parent's primer to computer slang. I'm sure my readers are pretty fluent already in l33t-sp34k, but if you know some n00bs (note: i use it affectionately) who need some education you now have a concise source to help them with.
Fun sections include:
- Key points for learning leetspeek
- Numbers are often used as letters. The term "leet"
could be written as "1337," with "1" replacing the letter L, "3" posing as
a backwards letter E, and "7" resembling the letter T. "0" (zero) will
typically replace the letter "O."
- Characters of similar appearance can be used to
replace the letters they resemble. For example, "5" or even "$" can
replace the letter S. Applying this style, the word "leetspeek" can be
written as "133t5p33k" or even "!337$p34k," with "4" replacing the letter
A.
- Letters can be substituted for other letters that
may sound alike. Using "Z" for a final letter S, and "X" for words ending
in the letters C or K is common. For example, leetspeekers might refer to
their computer "5x1llz" (skills).
- Rules of grammar are rarely obeyed. Many
leetspeekers will capitalize every letter except for vowels (LiKe THiS)
and otherwise reject conventional English style and grammar.
- Mistakes are often uncorrected. Common typing
misspellings (or typos) such as "teh" instead of "the" are left
uncorrected and may be adopted to replace the correct spelling.
- Non-alphanumeric characters may be combined to form letters. For example, using slashes to create "/\/\" can substitute for the letter M, and two pipes combined with a hyphen to form "|-|" is often used in place of the letter H. Thus, the word "ham" could be written as "|-|4/\/\."
