Mamma Microsoft e slang
Mamma Microsoft ha realizzato una simpatica paginetta per aiutare i genitori a capire lo slang di internet; in modo da preservare i propri figli da web-fregature.
Attenzione ai numeri usati come lettere:
Numbers are often used as letters. The term “leet” could be written as “1337,” with “1″ replacing the letter L, “3″ posing as a backwards letter E, and “7″ resembling the letter T. Others include “8″ replacing the letter B, “9″ used as a G, “0″ (zero) in lieu of O, and so on.
E al suffisso ORZ (pericolosissimo):
The suffix “0rz” is often appended to words for emphasis or to make them plural. For example, “h4xx0rz,” “sk1llz0rz,” and “pwnz0rz,” are plural or emphasized versions (or both) of hacks, skills, and owns.
Occhio anche alle parole che indicano attività illegali
• “warez” or “w4r3z”: Illegally copied software available for download.
• “h4x”: Read as “hacks,” or what a computer hacker does.
• “pr0n”: An anagram of “porn,” possibly indicating the use of pornography.
• “sploitz” (short for exploits): Vulnerabilities in computer software used by hackers.
