    Ghent University Faculty of Arts and Philosophy Thesis Deciphering L33t5p34k Internet Slang on Message Boards Supervisor: Master Paper submitted in partial fulfilment of Prof. Anne-Marie Simon-Vandenbergen the requirements for the degree of ―Master in de Taal- en Letterkunde – Afstudeerrichting: Engels‖ By Eveline Flamand 2007-2008 i Acknowledgements I would like to thank my promoter, professor Anne-Marie Vandenbergen, for agreeing on supervising this perhaps unconventional thesis. Secondly I would like to mention my brother, who recently graduated as a computer engineer and who has helped me out when my knowledge on electronic technology did not suffice. Niels Cuelenaere also helped me out by providing me with some material and helping me with a Swedish translation. The people who came up to me and told me they would like to read my thesis, have encouraged me massively. In moments of doubt, they made me realize that there is an audience for this kind of research, which made me even more determined to finish this thesis successfully. Finally, I would also like to mention the members of the Filologica forum, who have been an inspiration for me. ii Index 1.

  • Text Messaging and Its Impact on Written Standard English El
    Text Messaging and its Impact on Written Standard English El Mensaje de Texto y su Impacto en el Inglés Estándar Escrito María Arantzazu Sarasola Ormazábal UNED [email protected] Recibido 21 noviembre 2016 Aceptado 2 febrero 2017 Resumen El envío de mensajes de texto ha hecho posible nuevas formas de interacción. Mi objetivo ha sido analizar el impacto que las nuevas tecnologías, utilizando acrónimos, emoticonos y otros, han tenido en el inglés estándar escrito. El lenguaje electrónico es un texto escrito que ha absorbido y se ha transformado, en nuevas formas semióticas. Estos nuevos códigos, utilizados para interconectar e interactuar entre los usuarios, han cambiado la manera en que la gente se expresa, así como el lenguaje escrito lo que ha llevado a dar menos importancia a la ortografía. La Lingüística ha tenido una considerable influencia en la práctica de los mensajes de texto. Vamos a examinar tres campos principales de la lingüística: la semántica, la fonética y la sociolingüística. A través de un cuestionario auto-diseñado (15 preguntas, 90 respuestas) se ha sabido que los participantes eran conscientes de que preferían escribir los mensajes en un inglés más estándar. Palabras clave: mensajes de texto, acrónimos, whatsapp, emoticonos, lingüística. Abstract Texting has produced new forms of interaction possible. My aim has been to analyze the impact new technologies employing acronyms, emoticons and the like have had on Standard written English. Electronic language is a written text that has absorbed and become transformed through novel semiotic forms. These new codes, used to interconnect and interact among users, have started to change the way people express themselves and at the same time, the written language which has led to placing less importance on spelling.

  • Using Numbers As Letters in Visual Communication and the Effects of This Use on Legibility
    USING NUMBERS AS LETTERS IN VISUAL COMMUNICATION AND THE EFFECTS OF THIS USE ON LEGIBILITY Assoc. Prof. Çağlar OKUR * ABSTRACT In the 21st century, typography has developed as a means to enrich and broaden the borders of visual communication providing a wide range of new approaches. Tese new approaches provide a challenging and unexpected perspective for visual communication, such as using numbers instead of letters to enable designers to create new ways of exp- ressions. We are indeed familiar with numbers being used to represent letters, syllables or phonemes. Today we experience two basic approaches in using numbers instead of letters. Te aim of the first approach is to use numbers as phonetic symbols, and make the viewer to perceive them in this manner. Second approach uses the shape resemblance of numbers to the letters. It aims to make the viewer to perceive the numbers as they are and also as letters. Tese new ways of graphic approaches have opened a new window in visual communication and enabled designers to express two or more concepts at the same time. Terefore, the essence of syntax has evolved. Te purpose of this article is to repre- sent the existing design approaches in using numbers as letters and discuss which ones are favorable to express, introduce or promote a message. Moreover, it aims to evaluate some examples to investigate how legibility is afected. Tis article is based on a descriptive analysis to define and sample the existing design approaches of using numbers as letters as well as how the viewer perceives them and how they should be designed in order to deliver the message more eficient.

    LOCAL TRANSLATION SERVICES FOR NEGLECTED LANGUAGES David Noever1, Josh Kalin2, Matthew Ciolino1, Dom Hambrick1, and Gerry Dozier2 1PeopleTec, Inc., 4901 Corporate Drive. NW, Huntsville, AL, USA [email protected] 2Department of Computer Science and Software Engineering, Auburn University, Auburn, AL, USA [email protected] ABSTRACT Taking advantage of computationally lightweight, but high-quality translators prompt consideration of new applications that address neglected languages. For projects with protected or personal data, translators for less popular or low-resource languages require specific compliance checks before posting to a public translation API. In these cases, locally run translators can render reasonable, cost-effective solutions if done with an army of offline, small-scale pair translators. Like handling a specialist’s dialect, this research illustrates translating two historically interesting, but obfuscated languages: 1) hacker- speak (“l33t”) and 2) reverse (or “mirror”) writing as practiced by Leonardo da Vinci. The work generalizes a deep learning architecture to translatable variants of hacker-speak with lite, medium, and hard vocabularies. The original contribution highlights a fluent translator of hacker-speak in under 50 megabytes and demonstrates a companion text generator for augmenting future datasets with greater than a million bilingual sentence pairs. A primary motivation stems from the need to understand and archive the evolution of the international computer community, one that continuously enhances their talent for speaking openly but in hidden contexts. This training of bilingual sentences supports deep learning models using a long short-term memory, recurrent neural network (LSTM-RNN). It extends previous work demonstrating an English-to-foreign translation service built from as little as 10,000 bilingual sentence pairs.
