Chatspeak

Chatzpeak (or netspeak) is a popular internet dialect that originated in the 90s & 00s. It's characterized by shortening + abbreviation of words, use of z instead of s, and sometimes da instead of the. (Note: chatspeak sounds cool as all fuck and I wish I were better at it. Fuck all you saying it sounds bad)
