my name is mira
and i'm your new trainer for the day

once the lesson is done of course
okay so let's begin for today's session
[Music]
so let us begin with today's session
okay
guys i was just thinking
that we have forgotten the complete
spellings of words
because of our habit of writing in
sms language do you agree with me
but the funny part is
sms is an acronym and it means
short messaging service
these short forms have changed our lives
completely
just like the way i used the letter u
instead of u
b r b instead of b right back
or
b
t w instead of
by the way
which basically means to talk about a
new topic
but
let me share something with you
i
never used to understand this language
before
just three four years
and i felt so left out most of the times
do you guys feel the same sometimes
especially
nowadays while using instagram facebook
twitter
do you feel that let's start with this
one
we often say fb even when we talk to one
another
which is basically
facebook
or let's say
l-o-l
laugh out loud
is most commonly used and people
nowadays even say it out loud lol
can you believe it
well this happens when something really
funny that you read or see
and you make a sound and that you can
express it
r o t f l
rolling on the floor laughing
well
sometimes
things or words or situation
is more funny than
lol
that is when you use
r o t f l
the next one is
idk
i don't know
let's look at an example
i don't know when we have our exams
do you
let us get to some tricky ones and new
ones
shall we i o w
in other words
well we use this to explain anything
in a simple way
for example
in other words
you mean to say
that you don't like her
right
okay let's move on to another one
n-o-y-b
none of your business
it is the same as mind your own business
which basically means it is a private
information
and
you
need not know
yes well it is slightly rude when you
directly say it to anyone so make sure
that you're using this with very good
friends or probably
a stranger
who is asking you personal questions
all right
let me steal a dialogue from a movie to
give you an example
our business is our business
it's none of your business
let's move on to another one
rsvp
guys um marriage invitation cards or
random
invitation cards which we usually
get or receive on whatsapp these days
have a small note
written below
which says
kindly rsvp
which has actually
come from a french phase
but my french is not that great so i'm
going to stick to english
okay it basically means
please respond
please send us a reply
we are waiting for your reply
well
now you know
and the next time you get any invitation
you will not forget to r s v p
great
fantastic
our next is
t g i f
this acronym is more of an emotion that
we feel
every friday when we think
yes
thank god it's friday and i don't have
to wait for the weekend
anymore
you would write t g i f
go ahead
and change your status this friday to
express your excitement
now next one wth
imagine this
a very hectic day
and a sunny day
and now you are on your way back home
with an ice cream
just hoping to watch your favorite movie
and eat your ice cream
right
but as soon as you reached home
what do you see
there is power cut
no lights
and your ice cream has now
melted
what will you do you will hold your head
and shout
wth
what the hell
this is an emotion
we usually use for disappointment
or irritation do you agree
our next one is
b3
do you have friends
sisters or brothers who talk too much
without an end
i can understand
they're basically
b3 type people in your life
no no it's not a scientific term
it means that they are all the time
doing blah blah blah
and that's when you write b
three
okay our next one is c
w o t
now
let's take and look at a situation
you went for a three hour movie and you
did not like it or enjoy it
don't you think you would message your
brother or friend and tell him
it was a complete waste of time
basically you're writing
it was a c-w-o-t
did you get it
okay
our next one is
c u d okay now let me ask all of you
is anyone
planning to meet an old friend
colleague or cousin tomorrow
great
then you can write to them
c u t
which means
see you tomorrow
got it
okay
f c
that's the next one it is something that
all sports fans around the world do
before an important match
they write to one another
dude
fc they mean to say
fingers crossed
and that they're praying for victory
our next one is qt
and
pir
when your girlfriend is trying to call
you
but your parents are in the same room
you can quickly send a message to her
saying
cutie
p-i-r
you're basically convincing her
cutie bye
parents in room
or
you can also make an emergency code
p911
parents alert
fun isn't it
okay next is slap
no not the actual slab
this means when your friend has arranged
for a trek or a party plan
you can use this acronym
which basically means
sounds like a plan
which also tells them that you will be
going for the trick
or
attending the party
the next one
