2 Effects on the Wider Language

Users sometimes make up Internet abbreviations on the spot, therefore many of them can seem confusing, obscure, whimsical, or even nonsensical. This type of on-the-spot abbreviating leads to such things as: OTP (on the phone), PO (pissed off), or the less common, OPTD (outside petting the dog). Another feature common to Internet communication is the truncation and morphing of words to forms that users can type more readily. These may one day creep into common usage and end up in the dictionary. Examples of this include:

• addy — "address" (plural: "addys")
• dun — "don't"
• ima — "i'm going to", "I'm a gonna" (predates the Internet).
• pic — "picture" ("pics", "pix" or "piccies" for plural)
• prog, proggy — "computer program"
• prolly — "probably" (The Oxford English Dictionary traces this usage back as far as 1962)
• puter — "computer" (already has made the leap to common spoken usage)

The form 'teh' offers a special case of this transformation. This originated as a corruption of 'the', and often pops up spontaneously when typing fast. So common has it become, in fact, that it has made the jump to purposeful usage. Typically it is used in situations where one is being self-consciously enthusiastic, mimicking the less-grammatical Internet newbie: "That movie was teh suck!!", "The fight scene with all the Agent Smiths was TEH AWESOME", etc. The three most common usages are "teh suck," "teh lame," and "teh shit," although "teh shit" has the same meaning as cool or "teh cool." This sarcastic usage originates with JeffK.

Similarly, the word "liek" is used as a sarcastic misspelling of like, as in "I LIEK PIE". It is often used as an insult to one's intelligence and/or typing ability.

The word newbie is almost exclusively used for all sorts of new users of an Internet forum or starters in a particular field of activity. It is not a pejorative term per se, but can be when combined with RTFM, etc.

"own" has become a mainstream word for "to completely dominate". It probably predates the internet in some ways.
