New internet words: ur, alot, abit, loosing and apostrophes anywhere you like!

What do you think of these new internet words:

ur = your, you're and you are
abit = a bit
alot = a lot
loosing = losing
definately = definitely
there = there, their, they're, there're

Alot (whoops! ) A lot of people get them all mixed up and haven't got a clue how to use them. So shouldn't we just incorporate these new spellings into the English language to make it easier?

Some find the apostrophe rules difficult and so just stick them anywhere (eg. banana's). Should those rules be relaxed too?

What are your opinions on the standard of spelling, punctuation and grammar in schools today? What are they teaching the kids? Have standards dropped? If so, when did they (which decade, the '70s, '80 or '90s) ?

Perhaps it can also save some space and people are becoming too lazy I think

 

internet and sms words are getting very common these days, i still remember i lost a few marks on my english paper after writing such language. then on, i try to correct my spelling and grammers, when i write on paper!

 

"ur" Is an internet word. The rest are words that people don't take the time to look up the correct spelling of. No, I don't think we should incorporate mispelled words into the dictionary simply because people are lazy.

 

with internet lingo, english is already retarded. don't make it more retarded than need be.
