This is n00b speak:

Okay, 1337 is a good subject to talk about. The first thing I would like to clear up is that chatspeak and 1337 are NOT the same thing. Some lazy morons merge 1337 and chatspeak together, soon creating the popular belief that 1337 and chatspeak are the same thing.

Okay, so what /is/ 1337 in the first place? 1337 means Elite. The point of 1337 is to replace all the letters with symbols, and is quite fun to play with. 1337 was first created by some people would wanted to talk in a forum without any outsiders barging in. Some outsiders may have figured out the language and started using it as well. Eventually, 1337 became famous all over the internet. The original use of 1337 is hardly practiced any more, but it survives because many of peope use it for fun.

It takes a long time to translate between regular English and 1337 even if you know all 26 1337 secrets, unless you're very skilled at it.

Here are the 26 1337 secrets.

speaking in tongues

typing (or texting) gibberish. Comes from typing in frustration, hitting the keyboard, or accidentally leaning on it. A posting or sent mail or text shows up indecipherable.

Looks like Megan is speaking in tongues again. I checked her last facebook post. 3am, nothing but garbage. Must have fallen asleep on the keyboard. Drunk. Again.

speak spanish

To understand something to the fullest extent. Derived from "you don't even understand", and "we don't do that at camp ojai". Ultimately the coolest term in the world.

You don't even speak spanish.

tweak speak

the language of tweakers (tweakers are individuals who are addicted to meth and are usually trashy due to their lack of coherence); a rapid succession of words that do not flow well together, usually an attempt to express a lot of ideas at one time; talking without connecting thoughts, sentences, or topics; you do not have to be a tweaker to use their language: this language is typical of tweakers while sober people may use it when excited, anxious, angry, or when experiencing any extreme emotion and trying to explain something to another person

Janey was so excited to tell me the story that she was using tweak speak.

to speak in cursive

The way of speaking where every word flows out in a poetic and passionate manner. To speak in this way can be used to seduce potential lovers.

Violet thought that Brett was a bore until he began to speak in cursive to her and soon she was ready to give in to him.
