Mensajes de texto (texting) en inglés

Imagen
 In my recent book ESCRIBIR Y COMUNICAR EN INGLÉS (Anaya, 2016), written in both English and Spanish, I suggest many things. For example: • Do not text because you are bored. Your messages should have relevance. • Type short and very clear sentences. • Do not forget the subject+verb+object structure. • Remember that people's time is short and valuable. • Emoticons imitate the Egyptian way of writing, but are often confusing and unclear as to what you mean. Use them sparingly. • The four recomendations above may be hard to accomplish; still I think we must try, especially because on the internet nothing disappears. Everything is always there, even after being erased. So, let us be careful.
