ss becomes $
oo becomes %
'-orr-' becomes '-oz'
For example, Sorry becomes Soz, and Tomorrow becomes Tomoz (further abbreviated to 2moz and later to 2mz).
Combinations of the above can shorten a single or multiple words. Example:
your and you are both become ur
Characters and punctuation are removed to shorten messages:
Vowels are removed such that the sequence of consonants remain and the word is still recognisable.
For example, between becomes btwn and "yearbook" becomes "yrbk".
Whole words may be omitted, especially articles.
Punctuation may be removed; only question mark and exclamation marks are generally used. The space and capital letter is often omitted after a period.
"/" signifies abbreviation, such as "w/" for "with" and "s/t" for "something".
Other transcriptions of slang or dialect terms can be used if shorter than the original words, as in cos (with fewer letters than because.)
