I'm doing an assignment for English where we need to analize a specific dialect. I decided to do "l33t speak" but am having trouble comming up with really good l33t words and phrases - that are school appropiate.

So, post the l33t-est (is that even a word? well it is now) things you've ever heard, or said yourself

Thanks!

Now this may get into a big arguement

The problem being 1337 really is more of a cypher then a dialect

But it is prominant in the gaming scene which has phrases such as pwned and r0x0rs and such ... not true 1337 but tied so closely the scenes intermingle

so you are going to get a lot of "pwned" and other phrases but you got to decide if you want to include them

I wouldent as they are NOT 1337 but thats up to you

Well then I have to ask: what exactly IS l337, then? I had always kind of associated it with the gaming scene, as you put it.

My god... I could never have imagined such time and effort devoted to l337. I am truly amazed...

Thanks!

L33t c0u|d b3 c0ns|d3red p4rt 0f t3h Int3rne7 l4nguag3 r3volu7|0n. It's not terribly consistent, ex: pwn, 0wn, ovvn, etc. It started as a status symbol among those who wished to be seen as l33t h4xx0rz, but whose talents weren't necessarily up to snuff. It's been partially adopted by such communities as IRC and gaming, especially in online games like Unreal Tournament.

"Thou art a base amatuer you...", and the last one escapes me. Did correct some of your spelling, though.

My suggestion is to pick a different dialect. This one isn't exactly that pinacle of human acheivment if you know what I mean.
