I prefer text message style because it is faster but we have to remember it is not used in formal communication.

1. I don't know other words.
2. I prefer full text style, beacuse the formality.
I do not know in text message style.
I prefer text message full, because it is easier to understand.
I do not usually use short words in a chat, but when I use them, the ones I use most are u2, 4ever, in an English chat.
In a chat in Spanish, I abbreviated the short words, for example I put "q" instead of putting "que" and so, but only when I'm in a hurry.
It's cool!I haven't used them,but this style is easier & quicker
