Internet hieroglyphics In an interesting article, published in the newspaper El Peruano on April 6 - a proven and respected professor at the Catholic University of Peru raises valid and necessary reflections on the need to boost the country an intense campaign to promote reading.
rightly warns the professor that is not enough for the person, anyone, your age, learn to read and write at an elementary level.
even recognizes the validity of the Unesco report on the success of the literacy program of the present government.
But it goes further, claiming that we must work in promoting reading comprehension. Ie: not enough read, we must understand and analyze what is read.
In a passage from his article the university teachers expressed surprise and protest "sms language" used by our young people to communicate over the Internet and cell phone. It reads:
"Particularly in the current context in which is misspelled and in a hurry (when writing, because privilege speech), with abundant and even incomprehensible" abbreviations "(did hieroglyphics?) Because of the Internet, social networks and text messaging ("TQM" and "cdt" for "I love you" and "take care" "salu2" and "100pre" "health" and "always", "MNN" and "tmp" to "tomorrow" and "no", "YLS" for "and you know", "xoxo" for "kisses and hugs" and yet among English speakers, the curious "fyi" and "asap" instead of "for your information" or "as soon as possible" instead of "for your information" or "as soon as possible.") So, things "NEN" I do not understand! "
not understand us, or understand each version of Don Quixote and other literary works that have taken this "dialect" in Spain and Japan with the aim of involving young people.
share the concerns of the master of the PUC, but not lose the humor. Some irreverent and ribald student would say
iO NLENM TPCO prof ... (I not a teacher, I do not understand or michi).
