Guest guest Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 hey Dolly, Things such as lol (laugh out loud) rofl (roll on floor laughing) roflmao )roll on floor laughing my ass off) hth (hope this helps) imho (in my humble opinion) are called emoticons. These have nothing to do with hearing loss. There are many more and they are like a computer users shorthand.

Guest guest Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 Hi Larry, Thank you for telling me what I put down, but I knew the answers to them as Manitoba Deaf-Blind Association have our meeting in Deaf Centre also I knew abbreviation used for TTY. I was giving those abbreviation as example and now was wondering what people with Cochlear Implant used for abbreviation three I had put down HA, HI and ENT. has told me what they were. Sorry for the confusion. Sometime I do not put words down properly. Once again thanks for telling me anyway. I am LOL here as when I write out full for ROFLMAO, I would use A** in case there are children on the any of the lists. Oh BTW thanks for let me know what imho meant as I have seen that on the other list and had rough idea what it might be. I was just wrong on the " h " , I thought it was honest instead of humble.
