SMS Dictionary
Most cell phones only have the space to give you around 160 character messages - including the spaces between words. As a result, SMS abbreviations have become very popular over the last few years, and so we have compiled a list to get you started. Don't forget, they're supposed to be short and to the point, that's half the fun!
