    I dunno whether English is using the word "texto". In French texto firstly means, strictly speaking, "word to word" (mot à mot) and "le langage texto" is the language using abbreviations and phonetic writing as it is used mainly in SMS (SMS is short for Short messages System). In English the "langage texto" is rather called digispeak, txtspk, texting language or txt talk.


    As I'm not used to send SMS every two seconds, I don't use digispeak so much but I can suggest you switch to wiki_SMSlanguage. I also hand you over a list of words I've got on my computer.
