Understanding your kids' online lingo is like learning a different language. Most words and phrases are abbreviated, made into acronyms, or letters substituted with numbers and symbols, such as 'L337' for 'Elite'.
We've made a quick decoder you can use to translate these words to your language. You can browse by clicking on the desired letter, or search for a whole or partial code.
* Warning: Some translations may be crude or offensive. Use at your own risk.
