Not necessarily an acronym, but here’s a fun one for Japanese: Laughing in Japanese is warau, which gets shortened when typing to just w. If you want to laugh a lot, you would type wwww. That ends up looking like a field of grass, so that in turn gets shortened into 草 (kusa, or grass). Basically, 草 is the Japanese equivalent of lol
Also, in Chinese, thank you is often abbreviated as 3q, because when you say it out loud, it sounds like “thank you” (san kyu)
So would saying “touch grass” in Japanese be almost the same as saying “go to a comedy show?” :p
ex-USSR early rusophonic internet had a lot of original and transliterated ones but I rarely see them nowadays, and most are community-specific. Some didn’t carry over, some replaced by chat stickers, and the writing\reading of longer posts itself seems like a niche now when there are audio and video messages at hand. Add there that the web space I talk about is now also fragmented and occupied by bots\dummies due to the war and many sites for international communication on russian lost a big part of frequent posters\mods and later effectively musk’ed themselves.
Those I’ve heard the last:
imo > кмк > как мне кажется > what I suspect is bf > мч > молодой человек > young partner wtf > чзх > что за хуйня > what's a dickshit idk > хз > хуй (его) знает > dick knows (that)A lot of newer words I googled after hearing it from kids came from TikTok and they are mostly translations of trends carried in by local influencers.
I’ve been saying it for years, what is a dickshit?
In Russian? There are like five basic words you make your obscene lexics from (like ‘fuck’ in English), and хуй (khooy) is one of them, meaning dick, and хуйня (khooy-nya) is a thing related to a dick in a bad way, like a borked project or a complicated situation, while not having a direct translation on it’s own. Something like, ehm, a dick-thing? as it’s a noun, just like хуета (khu-e-tah), meaning the same. There are also an adverb хуёво (khoo-yovo) meaning something isn’t going great, and забил хуй (zah-beel khooy) when you discarded your dick in that situation and don’t give a fuck about what’s going on.
Many of them you can hear on the recordings from the ongoing war.
I’m not sure I’ve understood you correctly, so you can specify what you want to know.
IMO in German = mMn (meiner Meinung nach)
But for the most part we use the English ones
smh = iwie (irgendwie)
How r u = wg (wie geht’s)
somebody = jmd (jemand)
Shut up = hdf (Halt die Fresse)
probs = wsl (wahrscheinlich)
idk = kp (kein Plan)
kp could also be “kein Problem” (no problem) which is why I personally prefer idk / np over kp / kp
smh means shaking my head though
