SMS language

[jovial469]

Hi, all

My girlfriend sends me lots of sms, but many times I dont understand.

Can anyone explain what it means the letters in an sms?

Ex: "Minh co chuyen gap fai di ngay. Minh se hen lai ban sau." or "E jiet chet a! E de o nha roi!"


c
nt
dc
k
a
me
do
ca
j
ba
di

And does CHI ANH means? An older male or an older female?

Thank you so much for your attention.

[TLT]

Minh co chuyen gap phai di ngay. Minh se hen lai ban sau = I have to go immediately. I will see/talk to you later

I'm not so sure about the second one

Yes, you call an older female "chị", and an older male "anh"

Thank you TLT,

But CHI ANH, all together? And about the abbreviations?

And if I may, what about this sentence:

Vay hom nay minh ko xem ha chi. Khi nao xem thi chi bao em nha

Tks again

[TLT]

"chi anh"??? either they talk about two people chị & anh or Anh is a name. Vietnamese words have different meanings when different accent marks added too. In casual speaking language, anh is usually abbreviated to a, and em to e.

Vay hom nay minh ko xem ha chi. Khi nao xem thi chi bao em nha = Are we not going to watch it today? Let me know when you watch it.

Thank you so much.

What about the other abbreviations?

Thanks

[TLT]

Do you mean these abbreviations? c
nt
dc
k
a
me
do
ca
j
ba
di

Well, I'm not sure unless I see them in sentences, they depend on the context
