Unless you are a Canadian francophone. Are you?
I am a bilingual (English/French) Anglophone. Now when you say that I "talk" like a child are you referring to my spelling of the word thanx? That's just a shortcut you know kinda like using any other spelling shortcut. It may, and I hope this will turn out to be so, postpone the possibility of repetitive strain.

Yeah. I refer to that. Sounds like 'textspeak' or twitter.

I do, on occasion text with my kids but twitter...nope don't no how. Do you twitter, text, or facebook or any of the other "modern" forms of communication? Ah forget it...I really don't care.
