Internet jargons
Recently a father asked a question on the Internet. He asked what “PK” meant. “My family was watching the Super Girl singing competition on TV. My little daughter asked me what ‘PK’ meant, but I had no idea, ”said the father.
To a lot of Chinese young people who often play computer games, it is not a new word. “PK” is short for “Player Killer”. In the Internet Games, two players fight until one ends the life of the other.
In the Super Girl singing competition, “PK” means that singers compete with each other. Not all of them can go up the ranking(名次)。
Like this father, many Chinese teachers have found that their students use many Internet jargons(行话)in their articles. They are difficult to understand. A high school teacher asked her students to write articles in simple language, but they still came up with a lot of Internet jargons.
This is a passage written by a student. Can you understand it? “My ‘GG (elder brother) ’ came back this summer from his university. He said I had grown up to be a pretty ‘MM (beautiful girl)’. He took me to the ‘PKM’(short for Pizza Hut, KFC and McDonald’s). ”
Some experts think of Internet jargons as a new development in the language. But some think these jargons are destroying our language. What do you think?
