     Can you understand the beginning of this essay? 
     "My smmr hols wr CWOT. B4, we usd 2go2 NY2Cmy bro, his GF&3kds FTF." The Scottish teacher who
received it in class had no idea what the girl who wrote it meant .The essay was written in a form of English
used in mobile phone text messages. Text messages(also called short messages) through mobile phones became
very popular in the late 1990s .At first, mobile phone companies thought that text messaging would be a good
way to send messages to customers, but customers quickly began to use the text messaging service to send
messages to each other .Teenagers in particular enjoyed using text messaging , and they began to create a new
language for messages called texting.
     A text message is usually 160 characters (字節(jié)), including letters, spaces and numbers, so messages must
be kept short. In addition, typing on the small keypad of a mobile phone is difficult, so it's common to make
words shorter. In texting, a single letter or number can represent a word, like "r" for "are", "u" for "you", and
"2" for "to". Several letters can also represent a phrase, like "lol" for "laughing out loud". Another way of texting
is leaving out letters in a word, like spelling "please" as "pls".
     Some parents and teachers worry that texting will make children bad spellers and bad writers. The student
who wrote this essay at the top of this passage said writing that way was more comfortable for her. (The essay
said," My summer holidays were a complete waste of time.Before, we used to go to New York to see my
brother, his girl friend and their three kids face to face.")
     Not everyone agrees that texting is a bad thing. Some experts say languages always change. This is just
another way for English to change. Other people believe texting will disappear soon. New technology for voice
message may soon make text message a thing of the past.
