language habit

Using the text language can result in growing ignorance of proper grammar and punctuation.

People usually omit the part of speech in the text message. They think that their friend can

understand whether they do not write the whole correct sentence. For example, my friend sent

a text like, ‘Home?’ Without any subject and verb in the message, I could comprehend what he

was supposed to write, ‘Are you at home?’ or ‘Did you get back to your home?’ Even though

there is one word ‘home’, the sentence can contain many meanings due to the question mark

according to the different situations. People get into bad language habits as they get accustomed

not to follow standard grammar in text messaging.
